The municipal council in Mohali has not met for two months, leaving development works worth Rs 3.75 crore at a standstill.
Mohali’s municipal council has failed to convene for the past sixty days, according to local reports. The prolonged inactivity has resulted in the suspension of development projects valued at approximately Rs 3.75 crore.
The stalled works include infrastructure and civic improvement schemes that were slated for completion within the current fiscal year. With no council session to approve expenditures or monitor progress, contractors and officials are unable to move forward.
Local authorities have acknowledged the delay but have not provided a definitive timeline for the next council meeting. Residents and business owners in the affected wards are awaiting clarification on when the projects will resume.
The situation underscores growing concerns about administrative bottlenecks in smaller urban bodies, where routine meetings are essential for the execution of budgeted schemes.
