All you need to know about Ward 45 – Malleshwaram

by August 11, 2015 Governance
How was the 2010-15 BBMP tenure for Malleshwaram ward? What were the works done? What are the issues troubling the citizens here?

45 – Malleshwaram

 

When you look at the pending bills list of Malleshwaram ward, this looks peculiar: a list of entries for which no contractor has been mentioned, no year in which the work order was given is applicable or no details are available for the payments made.

One more highlight of this election is, the incumbent corporator, Jaypal N who had won from Congress last time is contesting with a BJP ticket this time. The reservation that was SC in 2010 has changed to general in this election. More information on the ward for you:
