In a first, NMC slaps Rs 5000 fine on Ravi Bhavan officials for impurity, intrusion
Setting a precedent, Nagpur Municipal Corporation (NMC) has levied a Rs 5000 fine on Ravi Bhavan officials for lack of cleanliness and encroachment under the NMC Commissioner Tukaram Mundhe’s directives.
On Friday, an NMC search team reached Ravi Bhavan and fined managers up to Rs 5,000 for the impurity and stench found in the area. The squad, headed by Mundhe, took the action along with investigation team leader Virasan Tambe.
As per NMC, “The garbage was lying outside even when there was a trash can. Lying on the field were plastic bottles, forest wastes. The impurity was found near the water cooler, too. Despite repeated calls for cleanliness in the area of government buildings, NMC has now levied a Rs 5000 fine. Everywhere this gesture is widely appreciated.
