Opposition leader in the municipal corporation and Congress councillor Jagdish Raj alleged that he had tried several times to meet the mayor over the issue but he was not available in his office for many days.

Congress councillor Gurvinder Kaur pasted the letter on the office door and also handed over a copy of the memorandum to the mayor’s personal assistant.
After they showed the documents, the money was given back to them.
