Pimpri: The Pimpri-Chinchwad Municipal Corporation (Pimpri-Chinchwad Municipality) has taken an important decision to curb the advertisements being put up everywhere. The Municipal Corporation’s official license for advertising will now be given to various organizations in the city, along with public awareness, birthdays, greetings and tribute advertisements. The Municipal Corporation has selected 112 places in the city for such small scale advertisements. These places will be available on a ‘first come, first served’ basis. The Municipal Commissioner has sought written suggestions from the citizens for this and has been given eight days’ time for it.
The city of Pimpri-Chinchwad is nationally known as an advanced industrial city. Presently Pimpri-Chinchwad city is moving towards Smart City. However, it has been observed that hoardings are being put up illegally in the city without the permission of the Municipal Corporation. That’s why the city is being scuttled. The Municipal Corporation strives to make the city view space as comfortable as possible. Therefore it has become necessary to regulate such hoardings. To give necessary information to the citizens of the city, for this purpose, while maintaining the road traffic safety and the beauty of the city, the Municipal Corporation may put up strong attractive hoardings of size 6 by 10 feet and 8 by 14 feet in the city. For this, places have been selected within each regional office boundary.
