The Hubballi Dharwad Nagarikara Ward Samiti Balaga has urged the Hubballi Dharwad Municipal Corporation to discuss the issue of setting up of citizens’ ward committees and approve the same during the monthly council meeting to be held on August 25.
Addressing presspersons in Hubballi on Tuesday, convener of the balaga Lingaraj Dharwadshettar, activists Subhash Babruwad, V.G. Patil, Marewal, and Sara Gokavi took exception to the delay in setting up of the committees and the apathy of the authorities in sensitising the public about citizens’ committees.
Mr. Lingaraj said that already 628 persons had applied for membership of citizens committees of 82 wards in the twin cities.
