BNCMC Faces Severe Administrative Crisis with 954 Vacant Posts
The Bhiwandi-Nizampur Municipal Corporation (BNCMC) is having a big problem.
Many important jobs are empty, and people haven't been promoted since 1996.
This means the people working there have too much to do, and some important jobs are being done by people who aren't officially supposed to do them.
The city is trying to hire new people, but the workers say that's not enough.
They also want the government to start promoting people again so things can work better.
BNCMC has 954 vacant posts out of 4,189 sanctioned posts.
Promotions have been stalled since 1996, leading to increased workload and dissatisfaction among employees.
Many departments are functioning under officials holding additional charges.
The civic administration has initiated a recruitment process for 182 Class III and Class IV posts.
Employees argue that recruitment alone is insufficient and that the promotion process must be expedited.
