Activists have now demanded that the BMC make public the first and current agreements of all 53 plots given to private parties under the caretaker policy. Former Information Commissioner Shailesh Gandhi and RTI activists Anil Galgali, Sharad Wagle (remove comma) and Ashok Doshi wrote an email on September 18 to Mangal Prabhat Lodha making this demand, seeking the information be made public.
The group of civic and Right to Information activists are against the Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation’s (BMC) draft Recreation and Playground Adoption Policy (RG-PG). On September 15, Lodha conducted a meeting of BMC officials and citizens regarding the RG-PG policy. He suggested that BMC officials publish a list of plots given under the caretaker policy. The BMC then published a list of 53 grounds which have been given to private players. Gandhi, Galgali, Wagle and Doshi have sent the email to Lodha demanding that BMC also publish the first and current agreements with these private players.
