With the fear of the Bombay High Court slamming the Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation (BMC) again this year and charging them for aggravated contempt for illegal Ganesh pandals during the eleven days of Ganesh Utsav, starting September 13, the municipal commissioner Ajoy Mehta has instructed ward officials to ensure there are no illegal makeshift tents this time around.

Last year, the High Court had rapped the BMC for several pandals that came up without due permission, as these were creating traffic issues in the city and noise pollution.
