Raising the safety of citizens due to poor management of roads by Pune Municipal Corporation (PMC), civic activists Qaneez Sukhrani and Pushkar Kulkarni have filed a public interest litigation (PIL) in the Bombay High Court seeking directions to constitute a high level committee to oversee the implementation of various reports on road infrastructure for city.
Sukhrani said PMC is neglecting the condition of roads even after the State Technical Advisory Committee (STAC) was constituted in 2007 with experts in road engineering from state and city level to suggest technical measures to improve quality of design, specifications and construction of roads and their proper upkeep.
