Thane, March 4: In a proactive move to streamline citizen grievance redressal, the Thane Municipal Corporation (TMC) has officially scheduled the next Lokshahi Din (Democracy Day) for Monday, April 6, 2026. This forum serves as a direct platform for residents to bring their unresolved civic issues to the attention of high-ranking municipal authorities.

In strict adherence to the Maharashtra Government’s General Administration Department circular, the Corporation has mandated that no new applications will be accepted on the day of the event.

Instead, citizens must submit their grievances at least 15 days in advance. The final deadline for the submission of applications is March 23, 2026, at the Citizen Facilitation Center (CFC) located at Municipal Bhavan.

Submission guidelines

To ensure a valid submission, applicants are required to provide their petitions in duplicate and must include the mandatory Form-1 (B), which is readily available at the CFC. It is important to note that the Headquarters-level Lokshahi Din is specifically designed to address grievances that have already been presented at the Divisional or Ward level.

Only those cases that have remained unaddressed for over a month will be entertained, and applicants must clearly mention the Token Number received during their previous divisional-level submission.

Administrative conditions

The TMC has also outlined several administrative constraints to maintain the efficacy of the process. Each application must be limited to a single, personal grievance; applications containing multiple complaints or those submitted on the letterheads of political parties, corporators, or private organisations will not be processed.

Also Watch:

Furthermore, the forum will not consider matters currently pending in a Court of Law or before the Lokayukta, issues falling under the Right to Information (RTI) Act, service-related establishment matters, or cases where a final decision has already been formally issued by the civic body.
