The Vadodara Municipal Corporation and other senior administrative heads of the city are now forming a collective body under a Public Private Partnership (PPP) model in a bid to further the city’s development.

Christened ‘Team Vadodara’, the forum will have on board the district collector, municipal commissioner, police commissioner, district development officer, Mayor, MPs, MLAs, Non Government Organisations (NGO), representatives of various public and private industries and others members discussing ways in which to develop the city.

The first meeting is scheduled for Wednesday evening. The topmost priority will be to target the areas which lack development, along with a region-wise identification of the problems.

“We have tried for representation from every stratum of society. We have representatives from industries, and various NGOs who can bring in a clear picture of the setbacks faced by different stratum of society,” said District Collector Vijay Nehra.

The forum has been made flexible with regard to participation from the public.
