Srinagar Corporator resigns as advisor to Mayor

One of the Corporators of Kashmir capital Srinagar has announced his resignation from the post of Advisor to Srinagar Mayor.

The Corporator Danish Bhat who is an advisor to Srinagar Mayor Junaid Azam Mattu and also an executive member has alleged that SMC has been taken hostage by a few people for their vested interests and he can’t be even remotely a part of it. “I’m hereby resigning as the Advisor to Mayor Srinagar,” he said.

Appealing LG Manoj Sinha to intervene in saving this democratic institution, Bhat as per news agency Kashmir News Trust said that SMC EC has not approved any works plan for the year 2022-23 and the plan submitted to the Government has no approval as no EC meeting was called to discuss any works plan for 2022-23.

“The plan submitted to the Government is completely illegal & politically motivated,” he alleged.

Danish Bhat further alleged that in complete violation of Municipal Act, 2000 works plan was submitted to the Government without any nod from Executive Committee. “It has been done to benefit few wards in the city and a particular political party when the majority of wards are made to suffer.”

“It’s more astonishing to see how some senior officers of the LG administration are being facilitators to this trampling of democratic institutions. I request LG  to intervene and save the sanctity of democratic institutions,” he said.

Danish Bhat is Corporator from Ward 60- Botshah Mohalla.(KNT)
