The Bombay High Court on Monday noted that unauthorized hoardings, banners and posters are a recurring problem and sought the Maharashtra government's reply on the proposed measures to check the issue.

A division bench of Chief Justice Dipankar Datta and Justice M S Karnik was informed by Advocate General (AG) Ashutosh Kumbhakoni that a special drive was conducted across the state last month and several illegal hoardings were removed.
