Pune Municipal Corporation
PUNE: A total 45 officials have shown interest in becoming the secretary of the Pune Municipal Corporation (PMC).
The PMC had issued advertisement for the post after around 11 years following retirement of the previous secretary. The civic administration has received applications from PMC officials as well as those working in various state government offices. The PMC will finalise the selection next month.
The office of secretary is important for the coordination between the elected members and civic department. “The municipal secretary office does most of the important documentation works, along with official communication. So, it gathers significance,” a senior PMC official said.
