The post of Mayor of Meerut Municipal Corporation has now once again come into the hands of the BJP after five years. BJP’s Harikant Ahluwalia has taken over the post of mayor. Meerut city needs development. There are many problems from which people want to get rid of. Garbage piles all around the city. Jam jam everyday. encroachment on the roads. Need of smart city. These are all such issues which are a big challenge for the mayor. Amar Ujala spoke to Harikant Ahluwalia on ten such challenges, on which he presented his stand with impunity.
1. The biggest challenge in the city is the cleanliness system. Hundreds of metric tonnes of garbage is generated daily, how will it be disposed of. Is Waterlogging a Big Issue?
Of course, there is a big problem of litter in the city. Will work on the lines of Indore regarding garbage disposal. We have five years mayor experience. In such a situation, solving this problem will be a priority. The drainage system in the city is very poor. If the drainage system is fixed then the problem of water logging will end automatically. We have a complete action plan regarding this.
