After it has been found that the Pune Municipal Corporation (PMC) is using a study room as a warehouse, the civic body has come under severe criticism from the students and residents.
The PMC constructed a building, Krantijyoti Savitribai Phule Abhyasika, in Vadgaon Budruk, for students to provide them with a study room. The civic body reportedly spent Rs3 crore on the construction of the building. However, it has been found that the PMC is now using it as a warehouse.
The building was inaugurated in 2021 by Maharashtra's Higher and Technical Education Minister Chandrakant Patil.
While talking to The Free Press Journal, residents and politicians expressed their displeasure over the transformation of the study room into a municipal warehouse.
Pankaj Phule, a professor, shed light on the genesis of the study centre and the root cause of the issue.
