Pune Civic Body Orders Swift Action On Pending Court Cases

Pune’s city government has many court cases that still need action.

The municipal commissioner told officials to handle these cases faster.

Officials reviewed cases where courts had already given decisions but departments had not yet acted.

They were told to get approvals and complete the needed action within three days.

If a department disagrees with a decision, it may need to file an appeal.

Land acquisition and tax disputes were among the important cases discussed.

The city will keep better records of each case using software or a Google Sheet.

Departments must label cases by how important and costly they are before the next review meeting.
