A meeting of the Mahanagar Congress committee was also organised on the day to discuss the preparation for the plan of the party to hold a massive protest at Municipal Corporation of Dehradun.
The party leaders also devised a strategy to protest levying of taxes in the new wards and the issue of regularisation of the slums. Speaking on the occasion the president of the Mahanagar Congress Committee Jasvinder Singh Gogi said that an inquiry headed by a sitting judge of the High Court (HC) should be constituted in the disproportionate asset case of the Mayor.
