Expansion
After forming the government of Aligarh city, newly elected mayor Prashant Singhal shared his planning on public problems with Amar Ujala. Through Amar Ujala’s dialogue, Mayor Prashant Singhal gave logical answers to the questions that are mostly in the minds of the public regarding their new mayor.
What is the planning regarding house tax?
The issue of house tax came to the fore during the elections. Such arrangements should be made that under a law, the people themselves can find out that in how many yards their house is built and how much their house tax will be built. House tax should be done keeping in mind the interest of the public.
What is the vision for Aligarh city?
Clean and Green Aligarh Smart City with public participation is my vision. No mission can be accomplished without public participation. It is believed that the love given by the people will give the same cooperation to make their Aligarh clean and green.
What can be expected for the areas included in the city after the boundary expansion?
The problems of electricity, water and roads are more in the newly added 20 wards in the city, on which work will be done on a war footing. The UP government is also planning to work for these areas.
