Ujjain: On the last day of her tenure mayor Meena Jonwal became emotionally overwhelmed at the Ujjain Municipal Corporation (UMC) council meeting on Thursday (September 3).
She said after being a mayor for 5 years, she is sad that her term is coming to an end over and she is taking farewell from her loved ones. The mayor recalled and shared her good and bad experiences with the gathering.
Seeing that tears trickled down the cheeks of mayor, a Congress corporator Maya Trivedi came close to treasury benches and offered her cold water and encouraged her to continue pouring her heart out.
Trivedi told her that you (Jonwal) are only taking farewell from the post of mayor but you will be among us in the form of a good leader.
