Addressing the gathering after the flag‑hoisting ceremony, the NDMC Chairperson called upon Team NDMC to gear up for the upcoming BRICS Summit, stressing that the civic agency must meet global standards and leave no scope for compromise in terms of infrastructure, civic services, cleanliness, aesthetics and overall preparedness.

“I have not only hope but complete confidence that, with our collective efforts, dedication and teamwork, Team NDMC will once again rise to the occasion and successfully deliver every responsibility entrusted to us,” he said.

Referring to last year’s achievements, the Chairperson stated that the projects completed by NDMC in the past have showcased the Council’s institutional capabilities and execution strength. He said that NDMC’s projects have also enhanced public infrastructure and helped meet the expectations of citizens.

He urged all officers and staff to maintain the same spirit of excellence and ensure that all ongoing projects are completed within the stipulated timelines, without compromising on quality, functionality or global standards.

Before hoisting the National Flag, the Security and Fire Personnel of NDMC gave a guard of honour to the Chairperson.
