Chandigarh, June 23: The 353rd meeting of the Finance & Contract Committee (F&CC) of the Municipal Corporation Chandigarh was held here today under the chairpersonship of city Mayor Smt.

Suman devi and Senior officers of the Corporation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
During the meeting, the Committee approved the agenda item regarding the booking of Housing Board Ground, Manimajra (Dussehra Ground) for organizing a commercial event.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The agenda was placed in light of two applications received:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2022 Sh. Alankeshwar Bhaskar, Apex International Deals in Event Management, Panchkula \u2013 submitted a request dated 28.05.2025 for booking the Dussehra Ground, Manimajra from 28th July to 24th August 2025 (28 days) for a commercial event.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2022 Sh. Sunny, FAIRDEAL, Zirakpur \u2013 submitted a request dated 03.06.2025 for booking the same ground from 2nd August to 17th August 2025 for an exhibition-cum-sale of consumer products, food stalls, amusement park, and circus.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
As per prevailing practice, in absence of finalized policy guidelines, the bookings of commercial grounds are being processed on a “First Come, First Serve” basis. Since Sh. Alankeshwar Bhaskar\u2019s application was received prior to the other applicant, the Committee approved the booking in his favor.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Accordingly, the F&CC approved the booking of the Housing Board Ground, Manimajra from 28th July to 24th August 2025 for (28 days) to Sh. Alankeshwar Bhaskar, Apex International, on payment basis as per applicable rates and conditions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The Committee also noted that the policy guidelines and terms & conditions for the booking of commercial grounds such as Housing Board Ground, Manimajra, and Circus Ground, Sector-17, are under finalization by a committee of councillors. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Until such guidelines are finalized, the current process based on First Come, First Serve shall remain in force.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
