Dera Bassi MC without President
Dera Bassi, September 8 This seat fell vacant when 10 municipal councillors had passed a no-confidence motion against municipal council president Manjeet Kaur Dolly on October 14 last year. Later Harjinder Singh Rangi was elected
as the vice-president of the council. Executive officer Varinder Jain said according to rules, president should be elected within six months from the time the seat is either relinquished by someone or any other reason. However, he could not tell the exact reason why the post was
still vacant. Deputy Commissioner Varun Roojam said the matter would be checked and the post of council president would be filled soon. Chief parliamentary secretary and local MLA NK Sharma also said the post of council president would be filled soon. There are seven woman councillors, total is 13, here and the post of president was also reserved for a woman candidate. Municipal Councilor Dayaveer Singh said in the last meeting some councillors had decided to raise the issue of filling the post but they could not raise the issue in presence of vice-president and local MLA. Councilor Ranjna Saini said all rights to appoint a president had been given to chief parliamentary
secretary and sitting MLA NK Sharma. The Municipal Council had wasted its time in the controversies. Nearly one-and-half year have passed and nearly nine councillors had opposed Manjeet Kaur Dolly as the president of the council. |
