Both ruling and opposition party have upped their ante against the ill functioning of OCW, which is said to be having strong political connection. But now the leaders have decided to block OCW in its free will operations.
An insider in OCW challenged that neither the NMC administration nor ruling partydare to interfere in their matter, leave aside the opposition party. Pointing to the recent ransacking of OCW’s office following people’s outrage over dirty and irregular water supply, he said we had kept our doors open to everyone earlier but now not any more.
“Now anyone having any issue should vent their ire on NMC administration which makes huge profit from us every month”, he quipped in the devil may care attitude.
