Thoubal, April 25 2019:
Blaming the Chairperson of Thoubal Municipal, Th Shyamo for last minute postponement of an emergency meeting and his alleged negligence of duties, angry Councillors locked his office room today.
The emergency meeting was called by TMC Executive Officer Salvador T Baite and was cancelled in the last minute.
The Councillors alleged that the Chairperson has been neglecting his duties.
They blamed the Chairperson for delay in taking up developmental works in the areas.
During a press conference held at TMC Conference Hall, Ward No 4 Councillor P Jiteswor said that the TMC was recognised for making Thoubal cleanest town.
Despite the recognition, Tata Ace Hopper Tipper and Tata LPK 912 given by the MAHUD Minister Th Shyamkumar to the TMC on February 6 are still not put into action, he said.
The Thoubal Municipal Council is behind in executing almost all major schemes.
Meetings for execution of housing schemes, IHHL, Swachh Survekshan and other schemes are still pending, he said.
Due to these reasons, 13 out of the 18 Councillors have come out against the Chairperson, he said and added that the Chairperson should resign from his post.
He also urged the MAHUD Department and authorities concerned to look into the functioning of the office of the Chairperson and take up appropriate measures to further the efficiency of the municipal council.
