Besides from last one year (23/05/2022) it has been seen that major funds were lapsed due to your inefficiency as President,” it reads.

The councilors said they are giving their consent by signing the resolution “without any compulsion/force”. “Further, our no signature should be entertained without this resolution for the said subject. Moreover, if our signature is found on any resolution of confidence motion or withdrawal of no-confidence motion should not be entertained by MC Baramulla for any further course of action as we are submitting this resolution by our will,” the document reads, adding, “Kindly acknowledge this No-confidence motion against the President namely Touseef Raina as per the J&K Municipal Act-2000 Rules and Bylaws.”
