As part of this initiative, unauthorized banners/hoardings, including those with expired permissions, will be removed. Additionally, the cost incurred for their removal will be recovered as a penalty from those responsible. Under the Maharashtra Prevention of Defacement of Property Act, 1995, placing unauthorized banners or hoardings in public spaces without proper permission is a violation that hinders the city's beautification efforts. Citizens are urged not to display banners or hoardings without permission post-campaign, as violations will result in legal action under the Act.
Citizens wishing to make suggestions or lodge complaints may do so through the concerned department office, the Grievance Redressal Portal on the Municipal Corporation's website, the My NMMC app, or WhatsApp at 8422955912. Municipal Commissioner Dr. Kailas Shinde has appealed to the residents of Navi Mumbai to support this initiative, emphasizing the importance of maintaining the city's reputation as a clean and beautiful place.
In conclusion, NMMC's campaign to eliminate unauthorized banners aims to preserve Navi Mumbai's image as a clean and beautiful city. Offenders will face penalties and potential legal action under the Maharashtra Prevention of Defacement of Property Act. Municipal Commissioner Dr. Kailas Shinde appeals for citizens' cooperation in this effort to enhance city aesthetics and ensure compliance with regulations.
