When Pune Pulse raised the issue with Ganpat Shinde, inspector, malaria surveillance, Wanawadi Ramtekdi ward office, Pune municipal corporation, he said, “I shall send someone to fumigate the areas where mosquito breeding is on rise.”
Sandeep Solanki, a resident of Kumar Prasanna said, “Mosquito menace is definitely on rise in our area. Pune Municipal Corporation is being ignorant in the issues of mosquito breeding. Even after raising them with the concerned officials nothing has happened till date. We have several senior citizens, children in the society who are getting affected due to these mosquitoes. We have been spending money from our pocket to get fumigation done within the society.”
