New Delhi, Nov 23: Ending a five-month suspense, the Centre today cleared the trifurcation of Municipal Corporation of Delhi (MCD) which was vociferously pursued by Delhi Chief Minister Sheila Dikshit.
“Home Minister P Chidambaram has signed the file giving approval for trifurcation of MCD. We came here to thank him,” Dikshit told reporters here after a meeting with Chidambaram.
She said Delhi Cabinet will meet tomorrow to decide when to convene a session of the Delhi Assembly where a Bill for trifurcating the MCD will be placed. All the ministers of Delhi government were with Dikshit during the meeting.
The clearance of the proposal came amidst stiff opposition from BJP which alleges the move will be against the spirit of the Constitution and will cripple the functioning of the civic body.
