General KT Parnaik (Retd.), at Lok Bhavan, Itanagar, on Saturday. The Corporator sought the Governor’s guidance and support for the holistic development of the ward, particularly as Lok Bhavan itself falls within Ward No. 11.

The Governor further advised that the Corporators must act as social facilitators, engaging with citizens, fostering community ownership, and motivating residents to actively participate in cleanliness, conservation, and development efforts.
