The BJP's Delhi unit has formed "task forces" to monitor functioning of the three municipal corporations ruled by it and deliver on the promises made by it in the run-up to the civic body elections in April.
The three-membered task forces for South, North and East Delhi Municipal Corporations will help the municipal leaders in implementation of the party's 'Sankalp Patra' (manifesto) issued before polls, said a Delhi BJP statement.
Manoj Tiwari, the president of the party's city unit, today announced the names of members of the task forces for SDMC, NDMC and EDMC.
The SDMC task force comprises Radheshyam Sharma, Shyam Sharma (ex mayor) and Kusum Khatri.
The NDMC task force members are Mahender Nagpal, Pravesh Wahi and Mira Aggarwal.
Ram Narain Dubey, Mehak Singh and Mahender Ahuja are members of the EDMC task force.
"The members nominated to the task forces have vast experience of holding municipal posts. They are expected to help the present municipal leaders in implementation of the Sankalp Patra," the statement said.
The BJP had won municipal elections in the national capital, bagging 181 of the total 272 seats.
In the run up to the municipal elections, Tiwari had released the party's manifesto, promising not to levy any new tax and work for transforming Delhi according to the vision of Prime Minister Narendra Modi.
