In response to this development, Vikram Kumar, Pune Municipal Commissioner, mentioned that the PMC would be sending an invitation letter to the Prime Minister's Office (PMO) and would be seeking his appointment for the PMC event. He further added that a total of 2,600 homes were ready in the city under the PMAY scheme, which were located in five different areas. These areas included three sites in Hadapsar and one each in Kharadi and Vadgaon. Meanwhile, the Municipal Commissioner visited Mumbai and held a meeting with the state government to discuss various initiatives in the city. It had been requested by the PMC to obtain one acre of land from the College of Agriculture for the purpose of constructing a Sewage Treatment Plant (STP) under the JICA scheme (Japan International Cooperation Agency). However, despite PMC's willingness to pay Rs 10 million as compensation, the institute was not ready to hand over the land.

The Commissioner stated that PMC would be organizing several additional meetings with the College of Agriculture administration to address this issue as it had not yet been resolved.
