Noida: RWAs have been formed to solve problems in residential sectors. There are about 200 sectors in Noida. Out of which about half of the sectors have big industrial units, while the other half of sectors have group housing societies and houses.
The RWAs have a president and many other people hold different positions. Just like MPs and MLAs raise public issues in parliament and assembly, in the same way, RWA officials raise the problems of common people or in other words the problems of sector residents before the authority.
After which the authority resolves them. Although till now the body ‘RWA’ does not have any kind of government recognition, but Noida Authority is thinking of giving recognition to RWA as well as giving salaries to its officials.
This will also be included in the agenda of the board meeting. The officials of authentic RWAs should be given a salary by the authority so that they can do their work with transparency, honesty and full devotion.
Authority sources say that a proposal has been prepared for this. So that it can be placed before the chairman, CEO as well as other senior officials in the board meeting. If RWA gets any kind of recognition, then development work may happen faster in sectors of Noida.
However, the authority has made an unofficial rule that in case of any kind of development work, the contractor will be paid only after obtaining consent and a quality certificate from RWA. In some places, it is asked for and in other places, the contractor gets the bill passed unquestioned. This rule is not mandatory. Neither the authority nor the contractor is obliged to do so.
