The umbrella body of Residents’ Welfare Associations (RWAs) in Delhi have issued a charter of demands seeking a more ‘liveable, breathable and commutable’ city.

The umbrella body of Residents’ Welfare Associations (RWAs) in Delhi have come up with a ‘People’s Manifesto’ for the upcoming Municipal Corporation of Delhi (MCD) elections, issuing a charter of demands seeking a more “liveable, breathable and commutable” city.

The manifesto issued by United RWAs Joint Action (URJA) has demanded that monitoring groups at ward level in the form of Nagrik Safayi Nigrani Samitis (NSNS) should be constituted with participation of local councillors, RWAs, market associations to monitor the waste management and sanitation services at ward level.

The manifesto proposes that newly constituted MCD must improve local area planning at ward level and coordinate with RWAs under Public-Private Partnership mode to constitute Residents Ward Committee within 3-6 months in order to increase transparency and citizen participation. It covers seven key demands, outlines 12 goals related civic woes faced by the residents of Delhi on themes of sanitation, air pollution, drainage, civic governance, public mobility and green spaces.

In wake of the financial crisis plaguing the MCD over the last decade, URJA has demanded a clear blueprint of the budgetary requirement for each municipal department along with available funds and way forward to fill the gap. “Parties should provide a mechanism to involve citizens and RWAs while presenting a mechanism of accountability and a review process for MCD,” the manifesto said. “Ring-fencing of sources of revenue should be carried out for utilisation for pre-designated expenses, for example tax collection from vehicles should only be utilised for improving public transport,” it added.
