The Municipal Works Department has initiated efforts to eliminate illegal rooftop and side margin restaurants, bars, and pubs. Separate teams were deployed in Mundhwa, Koregaon Park, Kalyaninagar Ghorpadi, Pune Station, and Vimannagar to dismantle unauthorized sheds belonging to hotels and pubs in the Mundhwa area. Approximately 54,300 square feet of unauthorized constructions were demolished at around forty locations.
Previous measures had been taken against many of these establishments; however, further action was necessary due to the continued erection of unauthorized sheds. Municipal Corporation officials have warned of impending legal action against those responsible for these violations. Following an incident in Kalyaninagar, the municipal corporation's construction department has initiated inspections of related hotels, restaurants, and pubs where unauthorized construction deviates from approved plans. Stringent measures will be enforced at such sites.
Inspections have revealed unauthorized sheds at forty locations in Mundhwa-Ghorpadi, Kalyaninagar, and other areas. Chief Engineer Prashant Waghmare confirmed that the construction department has commenced enforcement actions accordingly.
