In less than a week after MiD DAY reported (Locals raise stink over hoteliers dumping garbage, May 14) that a few of the restaurants in the Deccan Gymkhana area were disposing off their waste at garbage containers placed near a famous sweet shop in the locality, meant for public use, the Pune Municipal Corporation (PMC) fined Hotel Sarovar and Hotel Amrapali on Friday.

“We have fined them Rs 2,000 each. They have accepted their mistake and assured us that it won’t be repeated. The hotels have started approaching the garbage-collecting vehicle instead of dumping the garbage in the public garbage containers,” said Divisional Sanitary Inspector Madhukar Karkud.
