Clarification regarding Write Up published in Oct issue under the Heading
Elections to the Executive Committee of Bougainvilla Apartments RWA, B-4 (Also known as B-3)” by Gp. Capt. Vijay Malik, Flat No. B-3/3250, proclaiming himself as Election Officer.
We, the office bearers of the RWA 2023-2025 are shocked to see the write up. We condemn the illegal and undemocratic action of group of persons, who have been attempting to grab the office of RWA for more than 5 yrs, without participating in the electoral process. In the year 2018, Sowesh Pattanaik with tacit support of two residents Dr GS Yadava and OP Verma coerced a handful of residents and formed an illegal RWA in the same name knowing well that there cannot be two RWAs in the same name, and registration number. They have been collecting monthly subscription from 15-20 residents proclaiming themselves members of legitimate body. To protect interest of our residents, we have filed Civil Suits and Criminal Complaint against this group.
We would like to clarify that the Bougainvilla Apartments RWA was registered in the year 2010 and since then the elections of the Executive Committee· have been regularly held on completion of 2 years’ tenure.
Majority of residents, 65-70 out of 85-86 have been paying monthly subscription to us. We have been paying wages of all the Security Guards and Gardeners, electricity and water charges, telephone bills, maintenance of CCTV and other miscellaneous expenses. Our accounts are being audited regularly. We have been coordinating with MP, MLA and Municipal Councillor for various development Projects and with Govt. agencies for routine maintenance.
