Mumbai: Corporators cutting across political parties have closed ranks to bring a no confidence motion tomorrow against Navi Mumbai Municipal Corporation (NMMC) commissioner Tukaram Mundhe for his “undemocratic functioning” even as residents of various areas have come together to back the officer who has cracked a whip on illegal constructions.
The motion, unprecedented in NMMC history, will come up for discussion in the special general body meeting of the NCP-ruled civic body.
When contacted, Mundhe said, “I am absolute believer in democracy and follow the principles of democracy. I am trying to implement law and work as per the rule of law. The job of a municipal commissioner is to provide accessible and affordable civic services to the citizens.
