Posting an old letter for information of all 

ALERT CITIZENS FORUM OF INDIA

July 3, 2018

The Hon. Municipal Commissioner,
Thane Municipal Corporation,
Thane.

Respected Sir,

On behalf of our organization and as an Alert and alive Citizen of Thane City, we have been highlighting, from time to time, many civic and social issues.
Some issues portray the apathetic and negligent attitude of the citizens. Some other issues are not too palatable to the civic authorities - as they show them in poor light.
The reason for highlighting such issues has never been to cast personal aspersions on anybody but to find out and then try to set right lacunaes in the system so that ultimately it becomes a win win Situation for both - citizens and civic authorities.
Unfortunately, most of times this aspect of the whistle blowers role is misunderstood by the affected people, primarily because their 'interests' get jeopardized.
This letter is to inform you about one such incident.
I had written to you about the loopholes in the new Amnesty scheme for granting Occupation Certificate - the scheme which ended on June 30, 2018.
Post that letter, which, along with other letters written to you and marked to the Town Planning Dept. also, got leaked to the affected parties - agents etc.
Instantly, an atmosphere was created by these affected parties that because of my RTI to the Corporation and my letter to the Municipal Commissioner on the subject, granting of OC to the concerned society - Saket CHSL, in this matter - has been jeopardized and will not be possible.
Sir, these people are igniting the society people against me - that because of me, OC is not being granted, and I have also received threats to my life from sources connected to the agents.
We have only been demanding that a society office bearers have to follow and complete all procedures and compliances of the Corporation in time and the Civic authorities should have one yardstick and one rule for all societies. The penalties should be as per the violations and the interest, rights and properties of the members of all the buildings buildings be protected.

We have already lodged a police complaint about the threats received by me and are contemplating legal remedies too.
This letter is to keep you abreast of what is happening.
Regards,

For Alert Citizens Forum of India,

Dayanand Nene
President

Code of Conduct for Repairs and Renovation of Members Flats in Saket CHSL. Dear Member, You may be aware that a large number of flats in the society are undergoing Repairs and Renovation at any point of time, which are carried out many times without proper permission from the society. Over the years, these rampant and extensive repairs have resulted in: 1.     Altering the elevation of the building. 2.     Altering the original plan of the flat. 3.     Damaging the building structure. 4.     Inconveniencing the neighbors. Your Committee is in the process of obtaining Occupation Certificate (OC) from the Thane Municipal Corporation and any such flats who have altered from the basic plan may not be given OC by the TMC – and the society wont be able to do anything in this regard. For your information, i f member wants to do internal structural changes in his flat, he has to obtain approval from Municipal Corpor...

Dear Friend, The BJP is currently conducting a " Vistarak Yojana" - introduction / spread of the party's ideology to the people. Through personal contact, door to door campaign, letters, mails and meetings, party leaders, office bearers and karyakartas are contacting people on occasion of the party ideologue Pandit Deendayal Upadhyay ji's  birth centenary celebrations. This letter is a part of that endeavor. Introduction: Pandit Deendayalji  Upadhyay was the leader of the Bharatiya Jana Sangh from 1953 to 1968.

His treatise Integral Humanism, which is a critique of both communism and capitalism, provides a holistic alternative perspective for political action and statecraft consistent with the laws of Creation and the universal needs of...
