C&D waste management project: Pune Municipal Corporation officials inspected Ganpati immersion ghats and a construction and demolition waste management project on September 12, according to a post by the civic body’s PMC Care account on X.
Santosh Warule, deputy commissioner in the Solid Waste Management Department, conducted the inspections and reviewed the operations at both sites. The post said he gathered information about the work being carried out at the immersion ghats and the C&D waste management project.
The inspection covered facilities associated with Ganpati immersion as well as the civic system for managing construction and demolition waste. The post did not identify the specific immersion ghats or provide details about the volume of waste being handled, the project’s capacity, or its operating timeline.
Officials and employees concerned with the two operations were given necessary instructions during the visit, the civic body said. The post did not specify the individual directions issued or announce any changes to the facilities’ operations.
The inspection comes during the Ganpati festival period, when immersion sites become important public-use facilities requiring civic management. The C&D waste project represents a separate component of municipal solid waste administration focused on material generated through construction and demolition activity.
The Pune Municipal Corporation’s post did not provide further details about follow-up actions, compliance deadlines or the next scheduled review. It identified the inspection and the instructions issued to the relevant officials and employees as the immediate outcomes of the visit.
