Pune to Raze 46 Dilapidated Wadas Pre-Monsoon

In preparation for the monsoon season, the Pune Municipal Corporation (PMC) has announced plans to demolish 46 dilapidated wadas (traditional housing structures) in the city. This proactive measure aims to mitigate the risk of structural collapses and ensure public safety during heavy rainfall.

The decision to demolish the dilapidated wadas comes amidst concerns about their structural integrity and potential hazards they pose to residents and passersby. With the monsoon approaching, the PMC is taking preemptive action to prevent accidents and protect lives and property.

The identified wadas, deemed unsafe for habitation, will undergo demolition under the supervision of PMC authorities. The process will involve careful planning and execution to minimise disruptions and ensure the safety of nearby structures and residents.

The initiative underscores the PMC's commitment to proactive urban management and disaster preparedness. By addressing the issue of dilapidated structures before the onset of the monsoon, the PMC aims to enhance the city's resilience to weather-related challenges and safeguard the well-being of its citizens.

As Pune braces for the monsoon season, stakeholders welcome the PMC's initiative to prioritise public safety through timely demolition of unsafe structures. The proactive approach towards mitigating risks associated with dilapidated buildings reflects the city's commitment to sustainable urban development and disaster resilience.
