Corporators question the BMC on giving out tablets for civic schools
- by Webdesk
- 09 Sep 2016
The Maharashtra Navnirman Sena (MNS), along with other corporators has raised an issue on the Sena’s pet project — tablet distribution among civic school students.
In the standing committee meeting on Wednesday, MNS, backed by other opposition corporators has demanded that the civic administration should bring out a white paper on the use of tabs by civic school students in the last year.
The civic administration was also criticised for bringing in a proposal to provide charging points in various civic schools for tabs, a year after its distribution. A proposal to purchase about 7,224 spike guards for civic schools, along with its installation and maintenance, worth about Rs 92 lakh, where students can charge their tabs, was tabled for discussion in the standing committee meeting on Wednesday.
Sandeep Deshpande, the MNS group leader, said, “The BMC should tell us if the tabs have been helpful in reducing the weight of the bags through a white paper on the status of the tabs. And if there were no sufficient charging points earlier, the question remains if the tabs were even being used in schools as whenever we visited, tabs were not used while teaching.”
Additional municipal commissioner, Sanjay Deshmukh, who was present in the meeting, said, “The complaints of the corporators have been noted.”
