Despite Pune Municipal Corporation's (PMC) claims of removing illegal hoardings and taking action against them, the reality appears quite different. Hoardings can still be seen on almost every road and road divider in the city.
According to PMC, they have demolished 97 hoardings and issued notices to the owners of 236 hoardings in the last two months. Meanwhile, residents are expressing concerns as these illegal hoardings not only contribute to visual pollution but also cause traffic congestion. Recent incidents of hoarding collapses, such as the one in Mumbai's Ghatkopar where nearly 20 people died, have heightened these concerns.
