Noida: The Uttar Pradesh government may form a separate institution for providing better civic services to residents in the city. Though the institution will provide services similar to what a municipality provides to its citizens but its model of governance may be different from the one which is of a municipal corporation in the city.
DrPrabhat Kumar, divisional commissioner with Meerut Division, recently said that they received suggestions from various social, industrial and real estate organizations in which they have expressed reservations about the model of governance by elected representatives.
He said that maximum organizations are of the idea to not have a similar institution like municipal corporation as they have cited that representation of elected members are going to be disruptive rather than constructive one. The other issues that they pointed to are passing of responsibility over each other.
Kumar addressing media after having meeting with various organisation that held last week at Noida authority office in Sector-6, said that that the committee for improving services of the police is going to draft suggestions in a particular format so that maximum of them would be accommodated in it. He said that over the next few weeks they will study these suggestions to recommend the government formation of a sustainable institution for providing improved civic services.
He said that in case a sustainable institution separate from the existing industrial development authority was created options were open for its financial resources. He said that it could be scheme run by centre and state government. The other could be the annual lease rent collected from allottees,he added.
Kumar said that the other suggestions made by these organizations were public representation in board of industrial development authority. He said that they would discuss the ideas floated by these organizations.
He said based on the suggestions, the committee will recommend the government to form a suitable institution for providing improved services to residents in Noida, Greater Noida and Yamuna Expressway.
B N Singh, District Magistrate, GB Nagar, RK Mishra, ACEO, Noida authority, C P Singh, Commissioner, municipal corporation of Ghaziabad were present at the interaction.
