Yavatmal council president gets Collector's notice

President of Yavatmal Municipal Council, Subhash Rai, was today served a show-cause notice by the District Collector for allegedly flouting norms in the construction two multi-storey building at Balaji chowk here, which he uses as his residence-cum-office.
The notice was issued by Collector Sachindra Pratap Singh, in which he asked Rai, an NCP councillor who completed one year in office as yesterday, to explain as to why his membership in the municipal council should not be cancelled in this case.
The notice was served on the basis of a complaint filed by one Nilesh Shyamsunder Sharma, a resident of Malkapur (Buldhana district) before the Collector.

Based on the complaint, an investigation was carried out by the Sub Divisional Officer, Deputy Superintendent of Land Records Department and District Town Planning Officer, who submitted their reports to the Collector, in which Rai was indicted.
The Collector confirmed serving of the notice was today.
Similar cases against the former Yavatmal municipal council chief Yogesh Gadhiya and seven other councillors are pending before the Collector.
