According to Right to Information (RTI) activists, the special General Body meeting called to discuss the city’s Developmental Plan (DP) is likely to be deferred as Mayor, Deputy Mayor and other officials are enjoying their US trip while a comprehensive study for the DP, which was to be done before the meeting, is yet to be completed. The activists alleged that the DP was pending for the last 20 years due to lack of interest exhibited by the civic administration and the elected representatives.
