Geetanjali Security: Pay or NOT to Pay?


Dear all,

Enclosing the circular issued by our society President Mr. Mukat Behari to all of us demanding Rs 6000/- .
This notice reminds me of some kind of Hindi novel scenes where fear (guns, thieves, chain snatching, house robbery incidents) are used to demand money. What kind of security will we get by just placing the guards at gate is totally confusing?

The same people are renting out colony parks to outsiders. – Today there was lot of chaos in colony because of too much parking on roads (buses and taxi’s) and catering in central park. The morning walkers were amused how people are having catering and food in central park. Our park was given for just Rs 11000/- by President Mr. Mukat in his independent capacity JUST 11k? Can we let this continue?

I don’t have any objections to paying the security money, but not without getting answers to some basic questions from also sub committee led by Mr.Rajesh Agarwal ( E-15 )

Money – Collection and utilization
1.   NO Policy exists as to how security money will be collected?  Is it per plot, floor wise, separate unit, Tenants etc?
2.   After the last year collection from about 130 residents ( Rs 8 Lakhs ), how this money was spent ? Since it was public money they should have shared the expenses publically on quarterly basis?
3.   Why the list of 130 residents was NOT shared & the collections details? This should be available on internet?
4. Unfairness in collections has happened in the past for eg. Two residences of 3 floor each. While one paid Rs 6000/- and the other ended up paying Rs 18000/- as no clarity in differentiating the number of households per plot

Colony Entry
5.   Rs 80,000 were spent on 10 CCTV’s installations and they worked for hardly 2 weeks. No bills, warranty documents exist?
6.   Monitoring of service providers and builder suppliers? Presently there are complaints from many of harassment and corruption

Main Road Plots & Private Guards
7.   NO details on how the security will be provided to the main road plots?
8.   If the plot is being guarded by own private guards then what additional security will be provided?
