Jagraon: As civic body polls in Jagraon are slated for February 14, ‘mismanagement’ remains a major issue in the coming municipal council elections. This, they say, is the root of all problems like potholes on roads, water-logging and poor hygiene in the town.
“One of the main examples of mismanagement in the town is that we have a municipal park which has two garbage dumps in its vicinity. So, if you have an infrastructure which was constructed by spending crores of rupees and has such garbage dumps near it, does it not speak of mismanagement of the MC. It also affects the religious sentiments of people,” said Harwinder Singh, secretary of the committee of a gurdwara, which is near the municipal park and has a garbage dump close it.
