Chaos In Delhi Civic Body House, BJP Opposes Mayor's Discretionary Fund

Ruckus erupted on Monday at the Shyama Prasad Mukherjee Civic Centre during a special meeting of the Municipal Corporation of Delhi for the discussion on the Revised budget estimates for 2023-24. Opposition MLAs were heard chanting slogans "Mayor madam Haaye Haaye." However, Delhi MCD mayor, Shelly Oberoi urged everyone to remain silent and be seated so that the proceedings could further take place. In the Municipal Corporation budget, there is a proposal to put the funds of employees, standing committees and ward committees into the discretionary fund of the Mayor. BJP councillors have opposed this.
