Resistance Emerges as Maharashtra Government Proposes Village Inclusion in PCMC
Despite the Maharashtra government's intention to incorporate seven villages into the Pimpri-Chinchwad Municipal Corporation (PCMC) boundaries, resistance has emerged from two of these villages – Marunje and Gahunje. Marunje's sarpanch highlighted the village's self-sufficiency in terms of amenities and expressed the desire to remain independent from civic limits. The issue arose after MP meeting with Maharashtra Chief Minister where he advocated for the villages' inclusion within PCMC's jurisdiction to align development with burgeoning urbanisation and population needs.
**Villages Marunje and Gahunje Voice Opposition to PCMC Inclusion Plans**
As the Maharashtra government contemplates adding seven villages to the Pimpri-Chinchwad Municipal Corporation (PCMC), Marunje and Gahunje villages have voiced their dissent. Citing existing infrastructure and development achievements, leaders (Marunje) and (Gahunje) expressed reluctance to merge with PCMC. MP efforts to accelerate development through inclusion prompted this move, yet villagers argue that their self-sufficiency and ongoing development initiatives warrant autonomy rather than integration into the civic body's jurisdiction.
