Ahead of the BMC elections, the Chandivali Citizens' Welfare Association (CCWA) has issued a 24-point manifesto for aspiring corporators. Key demands include an anti-defacement pledge against illegal hoardings and politicization of public amenities, opposition to political freebies, and a focus on transparency. The association calls for judicious use of BMC funds for property tax reduction and community needs, alongside an online RTI system and ward-wise project dashboards.
