<p>Over 600 illegal banners were removed by BMC last year, in the two days following Dahi Handi; additional municipal commissioner surprised that fewer posters were brought down this time</p>

The BMC’s plan of working with politicians to rid the city of illegal banners seems to have fallen flat on its face. Still recovering from a festive two-day break, the civic agency dragged its feet yesterday in the matter of removing illegal banners put up on the occasion of Dahi Handi, managing to bring down only 78 of them in the city.
