Sunday stink: Little respite from garbage in Pimpri

On the second day running, there was little respite for residents of Pimpri-Chinchwad from overflowing garbage bins and containers. In several suburbs today, mountains of garbage had sprung up as officials of the Pimpri-Chinchwad Municipal Corporation battled with complaints from residents. Since Saturday, the private vehicles owners, numbering 50, have struck work demanding hike in garbage collection amount. Health chief Dr Nagkumar Kunachgi while refusing the hike had said that the PCMC does not need the services of the private vehicle owners.
