PMC caves in
After waging a decade-long battle against the civic body, Koregaon Park residents have been successful in getting the
Pune Municipal Corporation (PMC) to remove its waste-segregation unit from the area’s centrally located plot reserved for recreational amenities for seniors. On Monday, the PMC finally shifted the plant 600 metre away.
For the last 10 years, members of the All Koregaon Park Citizens’ Committee (AKPCC) had been making all possible efforts including correspondence with authorities, a mass protest and also renaming the area Piggy Park to highlight the problem. On Sunday, PMC officially shifted the unit to a shed near Avani plant.

‘It is a serious blow to the development of the community’
Maratha leaders in Karnataka are disturbed by the Supreme Court judgment cancelling Maharashtra government’s provision to provide reservation to the community, and plan to hold meetings to discuss the way ahead.
Community leaders such as Rahul Jadhav, member of the Vijayapura City Corporation, said this was a serious blow to the development of the community. “Some Marathas may be owing land and some may be in business. But largely, the community remains backward educationally. Even today, several Marathas in rural areas don’t send girls to school. The proportion of the Maratha youth among doctors, engineers, lawyers, and professors is less than that of many other communities,” he argued.

PMC has reportedly started construction of a waste segregation centre (feeder point) right inside the flood line of the Mula-Mutha near Burning Ghat Road in Koregaon Park (KP), inviting o
