LP speaker Om Birla inaugurates first National Conference of ULB Chairpersons

NEW DELHI (INDIA): Lok Sabha Speaker Om Birla inaugurated the first National Conference of Chairpersons of Urban Local Bodies (ULBs) of States and Union Territories in Manesar, Gurugram. The theme of the two-day conference is “Role of Urban Local Bodies in Strengthening Constitutional Democracy and Nation Building.” Mr. Birla called upon urban local bodies to incorporate structured procedures, including regular sittings, robust committee systems, and citizen engagement, to further strengthen the grassroots of democracy. He emphasised the importance of incorporating proven democratic practices such as Question Hour and Zero Hour in ULBs. The Lok Sabha Speaker described Urban Local Bodies as the closest tier of governance to the people.

Speaking on the occasion, Haryana Chief Minister Nayab Singh said that strengthening the urban local bodies in the state will, in turn, make the country’s democracy stronger. The conference aims to serve as an important platform for outlining the critical role of Urban Local Bodies in a rapidly urbanising country.
