Ahmedabad: A private organiser held four days of ticketed garba event on an Ahmedabad Municipal Corporation (AMC) reserved plot in Jagatpur, Gota, without paying around Rs 39 lakh in deposit and rent. The North-West Zone’s estate department had rented out the plot without standing committee approval, raising questions over officials’ negligence and the financial loss to the corporation. The civic body sealed the plot on Thursday, the fifth day of the event, after discovering the non-payment.
In another decision, the AMC approved ‘Wings Over Kankaria’, an initiative to help visitors observe migratory and local birds through binoculars under expert guidance during winter. The facility will operate for two hours each in the morning and evening, with Kankaria Zoo staff overseeing arrangements. Patel also directed the food department to inspect food quality at fafda-jalebi stalls during Dussehra and prevent encroachment on footpaths.
