EMPTY STREETS MEAN JOYRIDES FOR PUNEKARS
Police at nakabandis across areas routinely face innumerable justifications, from remdesivir purchases to hospital visits but usually, manage to disprove them with one call. Over 27,000 people booked since April 3 for such violations
A few days ago, traffic police in the Camp area stopped a bike rider defying the lockdown rules late in the evening. After being quizzed, the rider asserted that he was on the lookout for a remdesivir injection at a medical store on an urgent basis, which justified his movements. However, prodded just a little further and asked to produce a prescription for the same, he shamefully admitted that he had simply presented the excuse to roam around for no reason.
Board of Beed DCCB superseded
Amidst irregularities in election, Uddhav’s Maharashtra Government has superseded the board of Beed District Cooperative bank and appointed the administrator to regulate the bank activities.
The government has appointed 5 members to the administrative board. The Aurangabad Division Additional Commissioner Avinash Pathak has been appointed as the Chairman of the administrative board.
MSC Bank former MD Pramod Karnad, Pune People’s Co-operative Bank Chairman and Chartered Accountant Janardan Ranadive, Assistant Registrar Ashok Kadam and Adv Ashok Kawade have been appointed as the members of the administrative board.
The election of 19 directors on the board of the bank took place recently. 11 members were disqualified. No adequate quorum and hence the State Government appointed the administrative board for day to day management.
