Nagpur: In a baffling development, the Nagpur Municipal Corporation (NMC) has found no illegal hoardings in the city after a thorough survey of 370 - Nagpur News
The civic body launched the campaign after the hoarding collapse in Kiwale earlier this month led to the death of five persons.
“Of the 37 hoardings, 33 were pulled down by the owners themselves while four were flattened by our team," said Assistant Municipal Commi-ssioner Nilesh Deshmukh who heads the Sky Sign and Licence Department of the PCMC.
As PCMC started taking action against illegal hoardings, the Pimpri-Chinchwad Outdoor Advertising Association moved the Bombay High Court and got a stay on the civic action.
PCMC Deputy Municipal Commissioner Sachin Dhole, head of Sky Sign and Licence Department, said on Sunday that the civic body has made a record collection of Rs 17.24 crore licence fee from those willing to put up hoardings in the financial year 2022-23.
