SPV is an autonomous body within the powers given to it and has its own sources of revenue. Special purpose agency crafted outside the general administrative framework
SPV have been considered desirable and relevant in the present times when tasks have become highly sophisticated and technical and thus require specialized handing.
Problem due to SPV in Urban sector
•Special purpose agencies allegedly confuse the local administrative scene by making the system diffused and disintegrated.
•Citizens have to access multiple agencies to fulfil their various requirements.
•Local government institutions are no longer the single centre of power, their authority and prestige get diminished. Representative democracy, demands, as a maxim, that all public services be accountable to a representative parliament.
•The very purpose of the 73rd and 74th amendments, which is to set up effective and accountable government at the local level would thereby, arguably though, would be defeated
•SPV functioning in their own ‘isolated worlds’, unconnected in sufficient measure with other related works, also could not be discounted.
•SPV would work contrary to cohesiveness of administration at the local level
