In her letter to Mayor Ritu Tawde, Pednekar stated: “From the last election to February 2026, the municipal corporation has functioned largely without elected oversight. Over these four years, thousands of crores were spent on development projects. A detailed white paper is needed, showing the projects executed, the committees involved, funds allocated, and authorities approving them, so elected representatives can understand how the administration functioned during the period of administrative rule.”
