Last week a fire broke out at PMC-run Hambirrao Moze School in Chandanagar. Since the fire broke out on a holiday, no major incident was reported except damage to furniture.

Sutar said, “The main reason behind the fire is dumping of furniture, documents and scrap. The situation is near about same in all schools. To avoid such incidents, PMC needs to manage the scrap as conduct a fire audit of all the schools.”

Shiv Sena leaders warned that if the municipal commissioner does not conduct the fire audit, Sena will protest outside PMC headquarters.
