PCMC, anti-encroachment officials play blame game

PIMPRI CGINCHWAD: The anti-encroachment department and the civic officials in Pimpri Chinchwad are at loggerheads. The Pimpri Chinchwad civic panel has alleged that whenever the anti-encroachment department tries to clear encroachments and take action against hand-cart owners, the civic officials and employees try to evade the action by taking the names of local corporators. The officials, however, have denied the charge.
