Completely agree with Avick. Rainwater Harvesting should be made mandatory in New Town and Rajarhat belt. Not only for the new apartment blocks but also for the Govt buildings as well as the individual houses that are coming up . Also we can think of giving some property tax benefit to the people who install solar panels and supplies extra energy to the state grid.
Video-conferencing will make things definitely simpler in the areas of e-governance. Great initiative ...no doubt.
Also efforts to track the unused plots in EM Byepass and Saltlake is a nice idea. :-)
I missed Satyameva Jayate episoide on 15th July "Episode 11: Sunset Years, Sunshine Life " on Old Age that featured Nana-Nani Park as well, but watched it later on youtube Video here.
ReplyDeleteI did not miss this week's one on Water - "Episode 12: Every Drop Counts ". Is rain-water harvesting mandatory for housing complexes at Newtown? At Pune, PMC has already mandated that all new buildings must have RWH system and offers a 5% incentive on property tax for this purpose.
