Dimapur | April 4
The Dimapur Municipal Council (DMC), which has been undertaking various developmental works in the town since the beginning of 2015 on Monday inaugurated their 15th road in 15 months at Lengrijan Colony, Dimapur.
Advisor, Urban Development, SI Jamir, who inaugurated the road pointed out that Dimapur, in the past, had not seen this much positive developmental activities currently carried out under the leadership of DMC Administrator, H. Atokhe Aye. Lauding the DMC in this regard, SI Jamir urged upon the public to extend their support and cooperation to the Municipal Council for more development.
He said that in the past, DMC funds were mishandled by the elected councillors owing to which concrete development could not take place. “So the residents of different wards should elect a man of integrity to the DMC,” he added.
Further, SI Jamir said that the earlier system of leasing out collection of revenues left DMC with little money since the leased parties took greater share of revenue collected.
DMC Administrator, H Atokhe Aye thanked the Nagaland State Government and the public whose support enabled the Council to carry out its duty of providing basic developmental needs in the town.
Inforing that at least 65 community dustbins have been constructed by the DMC so far, Atokhe, however, lamented that the public were not using the designated dustbins during specified time thereby littering localities. He appealed the public to inculcate civic sense for hygienic environment of the town.
Affirming that the DMC was committed to carry out more developmental activities, Atokhe welcomed any positive feedbacks and criticisms from the public towards the Council.
