City town hall named after living and active ruling party politician!
April 19, 2015
Rajkot/Amreli
This doesn’t suit BJP ideology and culture. This should be corrected and it should not happen in future.
On Saturday, a town hall auditorium in district headquarters Amreli was named after former BJP Minister Dileep Sanghani who is living and very much active in politics.
This town hall is a public property and giving it a name of living local politician of ruling party by ruling party itself is completely unfair.
Former Chief Minister late Shri Jivraj Mehta(only CM from Amreli district whom Narendra Modi has admired on more than one occasions) had saw a dream of building a town hall in Amreli. A petrol pump was vacated from this land to build town hall at same place. In fact, on instruction of Dr. Mehta, his relatives had donated huge amount for construction of town hall.
Dr. Mehta’s family had in a letter requested municipality president Ashok Pansuriya to give his name to town hall, but BJP leader Deelip Sanghani who lost assembly poll in year 2012 general elections somehow managed to have his name over town hall.
This ‘self obsession’ has sparked off discussion in the town.
