Road and Infrastructure:
• Infrastructure is a broad term and actually includes or touches all points here. Dimapur is in need of proper roads and working drainage system. Footpath cum nullahs should be provided only to colonies where two vehicles can pass comfortably after installation of drainage system. If people don't co-operate than no development. The old overbridge should be dismantled and a flyover stretching from anaki building area to coconut sellers point should be build asap. Just repairing potholes means nothing. The concerned leadership should think out of the box.
• Once the road and infrastructure is in place and maintained then the rest will follow it. As no health centres no public health, as no infrastructure no waste management.
• Definitely 'the road' for Wokha.
• If waste management is improved we are one step healthier.
Public Health:
• Health is wealth. Other things will come together with this..
Waste Management:
• Waste management and the rest will follow suit.
• In the stretch of urban and rural habitations from Dimapur to Chümoukedima, one can see waste everywhere. It is the main cause of so many diseases and pollution including soil and water contamination. Time for the authorities and the public to give daily waste management top priority.
• Our cities and towns have the worst waste management in the country. Daily waste pickups in all the colonies and adjoining villages is the need of the hour. Otherwise, pollution due to garbage burning and diseases due to absence of waste management will continue to plague our towns.
• Nagaland recent news of Doyang getting flooded with unimaginable plastic bottles may even give Amur falcons a heart attack never to come back! Rapid growing towns across Nagaland has clearly shown us that Civic sense is about to go to rapid extinction mode! Before that happens, Nagas let us look into our own backyard with the following! 1. Don't throw plastic wrappers and bottles like sowing rice seeds! 2. Segregate wet waste and dry waste (Municipal committee can start doing their homework here). 3. Respective Colony and ward should check who are the garbage contributors or insta-garbagers to get rid of one's garbage in public, fine them (5000rs+ GST) with blessings! 4. Business establishment of all kind to have a garbage bin or a facility on site to receive garbage for a cleaner Nagaland! Lastly elected council members to be given basic black-belt/MMA crash course in waste management, recycling and field related knowledge to tackle dangerous garbage! Amen!
• This is the basic area of development in any community which needs to be addressed firstly; only then will the successful implementation of other developmental works be possible. Proper waste management along with well-planned drainage system and sanitation means better maintained and longer lasting roads. It also ultimately improves public health and hygiene and promotes sustainable living. This need is more so relevantly heightened by the recent reports of the SDG Index in which most of the environment -related goals of the state have seen a decrease in their scores.
• I really appreciate the given options as all of them seems very important and in need of it but if there is something to choose than it should be ''waste management.”
• With around 100 metric tonnes of wastes being generated every single day, steps to mitigate and manage the disposal is the need of the hour.
• Waste is one of the major problems causing adverse environmental degradation, which directly or indirectly causes threats to public health, infact the whole biotic community. Although road and infrastructure is also equally important in terms of public safety, I think it's better to start from small things, big things will follow then.
Other:
• There are dozens of answers to this question. But at the moment, the urgent and the best thing to do is to remove every party flags from every ward, locality/colony as elections are over, and because right now the party flags are hanging around and also flying around like UFO flying saucers littering the while town (LOL). And I guess this should be systematically executed with official directive from the Chairman of DMC. Well, there are winning party and losing party flags too and it would be better for the elected DMC members to carry out this small social service irrespective of the party they belong to. In fact, all other developments will take time to materialize but this social service can be executed easily if it is systematically mobilized.
• First of all the colony roads and footpaths even if it is constructed it will need maintenance in some 2 or 3 years, the candidate has to utilise some funds again but if the youths are empowered as most candidates' prior manifesto was on youth empowerment the ward members can initiate amongst itself for the requirement of their respective wards at some certain point where the candidate can also help in the capital amount without any inconvenience.
• First and foremost priority should be focus on specific jurisdiction electricity problem should be solved in this scorching heat without proper electricity how will people's survive and the rest can be done likewise.
• Car parking
