Pimpri Chinchwad, 21st April 2026: Pimpri Chinchwad Municipal Commissioner Vijay Suryawanshi on Tuesday assured industrial associations that long-pending civic issues in the MIDC areas, including water supply, sanitation, road repairs and hazardous waste management, would be addressed on priority.
Speaking at a meeting with representatives of small-scale industries and various industrial bodies in the MIDC belt, Suryawanshi said the civic administration was committed to providing a safe, efficient and growth-friendly environment for industries. He said the all-round development of MIDC areas was a priority for the municipal corporation and infrastructure upgrades would be implemented in a phased manner.
Representatives raised concerns over water scarcity, delays in garbage collection, poor sweeping services, damaged roads, traffic congestion and hazardous waste disposal.
Pimpri Chinchwad Small Industries Association president Sandeep Belsare presented a detailed list of pending issues affecting industrial units, including demands for improved water supply, better roads, sanitation, waste management and stronger basic infrastructure. He urged the administration to implement planned and immediate measures for the comprehensive development of industrial areas.
Responding to the concerns, the Commissioner directed departments concerned to ensure planned and regular water supply in MIDC zones. He also instructed officials to strengthen waste segregation, timely garbage collection and daily cleanliness drives to maintain cleaner and more organised industrial estates.
Suryawanshi said he would soon undertake an on-ground inspection of MIDC areas with officials from relevant departments to review problems directly.
He added that urgent measures would be taken for repairing internal roads, making roads pothole-free, improving traffic movement and creating a safer industrial environment. Discussions were also held on setting up a dedicated mechanism for scientific disposal of hazardous waste.
To prevent industrial issues from remaining unresolved, the Commissioner said monthly review meetings would be held regularly. Under the proposed тАЬUdyog SarathiтАЭ initiative, industry associations and the administration will maintain continuous dialogue to resolve local issues on priority and accelerate industrial growth in the city.
He also issued directions to officials regarding water supply, roads, sanitation, safe public transport facilities for women and availability of toilets in industrial areas.
