Resident Welfare Associations (RWAs) in Noida are facing significant challenges due to delayed elections and internal disputes, leading to a leadership vacuum. This situation exacerbates problems for residents as RWAs serve as the primary link to the Noida Authority for essential services like sanitation and security. In many societies, elections are postponed for years, or incumbents repeatedly hold office, turning some RWAs into entrenched power structures that fail to address resident concerns effectively.
