BMC plans to go paperlessThe BMC has 227 corporators, and the proposal involves procuring more than 300 tablets for corporators, senior officials and heads of key committees. The proposed digital system is expected to replace much of this manual process. The UBT leader argued that instead of spending crores on tablets, the civic body should prioritise basic issues affecting Mumbai residents. BJP defends the digital pushThe BJP has hit back at the Opposition, accusing it of politicising a proposal aimed at modernising the civic body's functioning. The estimated cost of each tablet is around Rs 1.5 lakh, taking the overall procurement cost to approximately Rs 6 crore.
