The Hon. Chief Minister,
Government of Maharashtra,
Mantralaya,
Mumbai.

Respected Shri Devendraji,

This letter is to bring to your notice the absolute autocratic and undemocratic behavior of the Municipal Commissioner of Thane during the General Body meeting of Thane Municipal Corporation held on May 20, 2017.
In course of the meeting, the Leader of the Opposition raised a point of order regarding the Municipal Commissioner having got engaged in a scuffle with hawkers during a Clear Hawkers Drive of the TMC last week.
Both - the Commissioner and the Leader of Opposition had a verbal tiff following which the Commissioner threatened the General body that he can stall the administration of the Corporation by stating - if I stay (in the meeting ), the administration stays and if I go, the administration goes...and he walked out of the meeting.

Sir, you have been a Mayor in your political career.
How and whether you would have stomached an insult to you by a Municipal Commissioner speaking and acting the way Mr. Sanjeev Jaiswal did ?

The Commissioner returned to the house after some cajoling, but more farce was to follow.

In a spate of an hour, Shivsena - the ruling party pushed through and sanctioned 392 + 81 last minute proposals without allowing any type of lawful demand for discussion on any subject. 

Is this the way Corporations are to function?
Yesterday, BJP and NCP  have protested to you against the undemocratic behavior of the Municipal Commissioner and Shivsena.

Sir, there is always talk going around that Mr. Jaiswal is getting away with many of his high-handed ways because of his proximity with you.
In fact, he has never tried to hide or conceal this sentiment.

Sir, being your well wisher, we request you to take cognizance of these happenings and take the appropriate decision you may deem in the matter. 
But please let a clear message go across that such high handed behavior by anyone will not be tolerated.

Regards,

For Alert Citizens Forum of India,

Dayanand Nene (8879528575)
President.

The Vanjari caste

The Vanjari caste Nowadays, it has become fashion to tomtom your backwardness if you are in politics, govt sector or education. For obvious reasons. We find many political leaders proclaiming that they are backward - because that is what sells now. Hence, I decided to study the origins of various castes to find out who is more backward and how. Today, I give information about the Vanjari caste. The Vanjari is a community in India; they live spread throughout the country but have a sizeable population in the state of Maharashtra. They are also present in parts of Andhra Pradesh particularly in the districts of Telangana region. A Vanjari or a trader seems to be an occupational description, as it is etymologically identical with Vanijya which means trade or commerce. These tribes were in the past engaged in carrying grain and supplies for armies, before the time of cart-roads and railways. Thane Vanjaries are settled in 24 Villages in Thane District Viz. Bandhan, Boi...

 शेतजमीन विषयक महत्वाच्या संज्ञाः भाग-4 वहिवाट रस्ताः वहिवाट रस्ता ज्याला गावठाण रस्ता, शेत रस्ता, बांधावरील रस्ता वगैरे म्हणता येईल. तर असे आहे कि काळ बदलला, वाटेहिस्से जास्त पडु लागले, जमीनींचे भाव गगनाला भिडले तसे जमीनींचे मोठ्या प्रमाणात व्यवहार होऊ लागले आणी त्यामुळे जमिनीचे छोटे छोटे तुकडे झाले. जमीन मालक बदलले. त्यामुळे काही ठिकाणी नवीन खरेदीदाराला त्याच्या जमिनीत जाण्यासाठी रस्ताच उपलब्ध नाही पण शेती कसण्यासाठी शेतात मजूर घेऊन जावे लागते, बी-बियाणे, खते, यंत्रसामग्री इ. न्यावे लागते तसेच उत्पन्न निघाल्यानंतर माल उचलण्यासाठी बैलगाडी किंवा ट्रॅक्टर न्यावे लागते अश्यावेळी समोरचा जमीन मालक रस्ता देत नसेल तर शेतकऱ्याची मोठीच अडचण होते. आपल्या मालकीच्या जागेवर जाण्यासाठी रस्ता मिळणे हा प्रत्येकाचा कायदेशीर अधिकार (Right of Way) आहे. अश्यावेळी शेतकरी अथवा जमीनमालक यांना रस्त्याची मागणी शासनाकडे म्हणजेच सक्षम अधिकारी / तहसिलदार यांच्याकडे करता येते. वहिवाट प्रकरणातील तहसीलदार यांची भूमिका: जमीन महसूल कायद्याच्या कलम 143 नुसार जमीन धारण करणार्या व्यक्तीला स्वत:च्या मालकीच्या जमीनीत ...

Proposed Development Plan for greater Mumbai - 2034 ( In this article, the writer has very lucidly explained the entire concept of DP). The Draft Development Plan 2034 with its own overall positive prospective needs to be improvised.

While curtailing several concessions available under present DCR 35(2), it proposes Higher FSI and is focused more on Housing then in amenities i.e. covered Swimming Pools, Club Houses and grand entrance Lobbies will be all counted in FSI. However some of the amenities are made mandatory and are to be counted in FSI like society offi...
