The Kolkata Municipal Corporation (KMC) announced today that it has allotted a municipal office to Kartik Maharaj, a member of the Road Renaming Panel. The office will serve as a central hub for Maharaj’s work on the panel’s initiatives.
The Road Renaming Panel is tasked with reviewing and approving proposals to rename streets throughout Kolkata, ensuring that changes reflect cultural, historical, and civic considerations. The panel’s work aims to bring clarity and uniformity to the city’s street naming conventions.
Kartik Maharaj will use the new office to coordinate meetings, manage documentation, and liaise with other municipal departments involved in the renaming process. His role includes ensuring that proposals are vetted and approved in a timely manner.
By providing a dedicated workspace, KMC hopes to expedite the renaming process and enhance transparency. The move underscores the city’s commitment to improving administrative efficiency and maintaining up‑to‑date civic infrastructure.
