Administration will look into only what they want to; Is rest are happening under the supervision of “Mr. India”?

TMI Correspondent
Port Blair, June 24: It is good news for people that, the PBMC has taken up renovation of nine Community Halls in various Wards for the benefit of the people with the fund of Rs.7.15 crores allotted by Administration.
On the other side, the Multipurpose Hall at Buniyadabad is turning into a unique monument as still it is left for display purpose only instead of multipurpose use for the residents of the area since its completion.
The Multipurpose hall in Ward No. 8, Buniyadabad has been in a ready condition since 5 years now after its inauguration on 14th August, 2015. But it has been left as a monument without any proper use for the people of the area. The Port Blair Municipal Council is not allowing people to arrange any functions in this community hall.
The people of the area are celebrating special occasions as Birthdays, Sankranti, wedding receptions, etc. in the playground despite having a ready Multipurpose Community Hall at Buniyadabad. But this building fully comes into use only during elections as Polling Booth.
"The authorities should not let the public property rot under useless condition. The construction of a Multipurpose Hall Building is a matter of many crores of rupees, which cannot be misused, at least not as a tombstone. The guarantee of a new building structure is approx 30 years and this hall has already completed its 5 years without any public use. But, the authorities are not interested to put the hall functional, don't know whether the authorities can't able to see the structure or is not visible to them like a lead character 'Mr. India' in movie", people say.
Speaking to this correspondent, Shri K. Ganeshan, Councilor (Ward No. 8) said, "A legal case on this Community hall is under process in the court and court has issued an order that we are following."
