A proposal to allow the use of corporator funds for solar power systems and rainwater harvesting projects in private housing societies has been submitted to the Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation (BMC) by Women and Child Welfare Committee Chairperson Minal Turde.

Turde has written to BMC Commissioner Ashwini Bhide requesting changes to the existing rules governing the use of corporator funds. She said the move would help more residents benefit from development initiatives while encouraging environmentally sustainable practices across the city.
