Hi there all,
As you may be aware, as per the Supreme Court directive PMC was required to create a Town Vending Committee (TVC) to make decisions on Hawkers policy in Pune city. Accordingly a TVC was formed and a series of decisions were taken on hawker’s related issues by the PMC. Currently, PMC is in a process of taking action on these decisions.
For additional information on this issue, please check the PMC website link: http://www.punecorporation.org/pmcwebn/informpdf/Encroachment

Following are some of the key decisions made by PMC on this issue:
  • Forty five (45) main roads will be kept as hawker free zones
  • One hundred and fifty three (153) chowks will be kept hawker free
  • Hawkers zones will be created throughout the city
