BMC addl commissioner transferred to Gwalior

Bhopal: Nidhi Singh, additional commissioner of Bhopal Municipal Corporation, was transferred to joint commissioner land records, Gwalior. She is a 2019-batch IAS officer. Intense debates erupted during the BMC council meeting on Dec 13, and the council unanimously passed a censure motion against Nidhi Singh, recommending her services to be returned to the state govt. "The corporation officials should not underestimate the council," said the BMC corporators as they accused BMC officials of mismanagement and undermining elected corporators. Bhopal mayor Malti Rai supported the motion and initiated the process of returning Nidhi Singh's services to the state government.The corporators specifically targeted the BMC additional commissioner among other officials. The censure motion against Nidhi Singh marked a significant action after years without such a measure.
