Sir,The recommendation of the Thirteenth Finance commission to set up an independent Local body ombudsman is most laudable step.The local bodies in most of the states are not performing to the expected standards due to probably the nexus between elected representatives and the bureaucracy. This must not only be enforced in all states but must also be given wide publicity for the benefit of the common people.
