PUNE The Pune Municipal Corporation (PMC) is being accused of “shoddy” pre-monsoon road repair work by civic activists and the opposition parties.
Activists are demanding that the PMC carry out work as per the Standing Technical Advisory committee’s (STAC) recommendations.
PMC had set a deadline to stop all road digging by May 31, to and complete all resurfacing before the monsoon begins. The PMC also undertook the replacement of drainage and water pipe lines across major roads in the city. However, due to the pre-monsoon showers, contractors have not been able to complete the work and are now accused of finishing it in a hurry, hence, the shoddiness.
