The Pimpri-Chinchwad Municipal Corporation (PCMC) demolished an unauthorized reinforced cement concrete (RCC) structure in Prabhat Nagar, Pimple Gurav, on October 6, 2026. The demolition covered an area of approximately 432 square meters and was carried out by the civic body's D Ward Office with support from police and Maharashtra Security Force personnel.
The operation forms part of PCMC's enforcement against unauthorized construction within Pimpri-Chinchwad. Municipal personnel used heavy machinery to bring down the structure, which had been reported as a multi-story building under construction.
The demolition team deployed two JCB machines, a jaw crusher, a tractor-mounted breaker and supporting personnel to carry out the operation. Police and Maharashtra Security Force personnel were present to assist the municipal team during the drive.
The operation was conducted under the supervision of Assistant Commissioner and D Ward Officer Ashwini Gaikwad. The civic administration's senior officials included Municipal Commissioner Dr. Vijay Suryawanshi, Additional Commissioner Trupti Sandbhor and Deputy Commissioner Atul Patil, who provided administrative direction for the action.
PCMC has reiterated that construction activities must comply with applicable development regulations and receive the required permissions before work begins. Municipal Commissioner Dr. Vijay Suryawanshi also urged citizens to secure the necessary approvals before undertaking construction.
The demolition underscores the civic body's enforcement responsibilities in areas under its jurisdiction. However, details of the specific permissions, notices or proceedings associated with the structure were not available in the information reviewed for this report.
The structure was described differently in available accounts, with some identifying it as a seven-story building and another describing it as a four-story RCC structure. The discrepancy could not be independently resolved from the available information.
The demolition took place in Prabhat Nagar, Pimple Gurav, and involved a reported area of approximately 432 square meters. No confirmed details were available regarding further action planned specifically for the site following the demolition.
