[ad_1]

By Ram Kinkar Singh: Delhi Mayor Shelly Oberoi on Wednesday inspected the construction site of a multi-level stack car parking at Nigam Bodh Ghat in Kashmiri Gate. A multi-level stack car parking space is being developed by the Delhi Municipal Corporation in addition to the existing parking facility at the Ghat, with a capacity of 95 cars.

The Ghat is regarded as one of the biggest and busiest cremation grounds in North Delhi and is often troubled by jam-packed routes. The project is set to bring major relief to commuters on the stretch between Hanuman Mandir and ISBT.

During the inspection, officials of the Municipal Corporation of Delhi briefed the mayor about the project’s work plan and the facilities to be developed on the premises. She directed officials to ensure that the work on stack parking is completed within two months.

“The AAP-led MCD is committed to completing the project within the specified timeframe,” Shelly Oberoi said.

By India Today Web Desk: The Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) has nominated Shelly Oberoi for the post of Delhi’s Mayor. The AAP won the Municipal Corporation of Delhi (MCD) polls early this month, ending the BJP’s 15-year rule.

The mayoral elections are scheduled for January 6 but Shelly Oberoi is likely to win the post because the BJP has announced it will not participate in the polls.

As per provisions, the MCD has to elect five mayors in five years, starting with a woman. In the third year, an elected councillor from the Scheduled Caste will get the post.

Delhi had one mayor for the whole of the city till 2012 when the MCD was trifurcated into the North Delhi Municipal Corporation, the South Delhi Municipal Corporation and the East Delhi Municipal Corporation. The unification happened early this year. So, Delhi will have one mayor for the whole of the city after a decade.
