Given below is the text of the Sense-of-the-House resolution on mismanagement of MCDs,  adopted by the Delhi Assembly in its sitting on Monday, 17th January. This resolution was moved by Mr Saurabh Bhardwaj, MLA representing the Greater Kailash constituency and was seconded by Deputy Chief Minister Mr Manish Sisodia :

“This House takes serious note of the extremely poor financial management in the Municipal Corporations of Delhi, particularly in the East Delhi Municipal Corporation and the North Delhi Municipal Corporation;

This House condemns the sorry state of affairs that has led to non-payment of salaries of employees in these two corporations, particularly the sanitation workers and the resultant hardships being faced by the residents of Delhi due to piled up garbage and other related problems;

This House notes that the MCDs have failed to pay the salaries of their employees despite having received enhanced funds from the Government of Delhi and the residents of Delhi have a right to know how the MCDs are utilising these funds;

This House resolves that the MCDs should take urgent and effective measures to improve their financial health and ensure that residents of Delhi get basic facilities that they are entitled to as tax payers;

This House directs the Government of Delhi to take all possible steps to look into the finances of the MCDs in accordance with the provisions of the Delhi Municipal Corporation Act, 1957;

This House also directs the Government of Delhi to direct the Municipal Corporations to inform the steps that are being taken to improve their financial condition; and

This House resolves that a fact finding committee be immediately constituted by the Government under the Chairmanship of the Director of Local Bodies, GNCTD to look into the above mentioned issues pertaining to the Municipal Corporations and to table its report in this House in the next session.”
