Mayor Virender Bhatt unveils ‘game-changing’ facility for citizens
MANDI (Munish Sood)
Imagine paying your taxes, registering your pet or obtaining a birth certificate after a few clicks from the comfort of your home. Well, for the Mandi residents, this is no longer a distant dream.
With the launch of its official website, the Mandi Municipal Corporation has embraced the digital era, making cumbersome paperwork a thing of the past.
In a lively event marked by optimism and progress, Mayor Virender Bhatt alongside councillors, Municipal Commissioner and staff unveiled the website, www.municipalcorporationmandi.in. With a simple click of the mouse, Mandi’s governance took a major leap into the future.
New chapter in civic convenience
The website offers a wide array of services to bring the Municipal Corporation closer to the citizens it serves. Residents can now:
- Pay garbage taxes without stepping out of house.
- Register their furry friends with ease.
- File complaints and suggestions that promise quick resolutions.
- Apply for death and birth certificates online.
- Address electricity-related grievances or get NOCs for water and power connections.
- Participate in e-tendering processes, all from their devices.
Vision for tomorrow
But this is just the beginning. Mayor Bhatt revealed exciting plans to add more services in the near future. Soon, residents will be able to manage property tax payments, submit water bills, get building plans approved and even register marriages — all through the same portal.
“The aim is to bring governance to the people rather than making them come to us. This website is not just a portal; it’s a bridge between citizens and a more responsive administration,” said Mayor Bhatt.
Convenience in every click
Gone are the days of standing in long queues or making endless trips to the municipal office.
With this initiative, Mandi is on track to becoming a model for citizen-centric governance. The mayor urged residents to explore and utilize the website, ensuring they benefit fully from the new-age services.
