The failure of elected representatives of the Guwahati Municipal Corporation to make the maximum of the ambitious Jawaharlal Nehru National Urban Renewal Mission plan of the Central Government stands as a glaring example of negligence of public work. Though the JNNURM has provisions for Community Participation Fund (CPF) facilitating many benefiting projects for the common people, very little has been done by the councillors, always crying for funds to carry public work, to tap the existing resources under the mission.
