A 24 year old allegedly drunk driver (Vallabh Bodke) lost control and rammed straight into parked vehicles on MIT College Road in Kothrud, injuring a woman in the process. Bystanders ended up beating him up on the spot before the cops pulled up and detained him. When are people in this city finally gonna stop driving hammered?

General/Rant Charged ₹300 for pickup at Pune Airport?

Post image
39 Upvotes

Went to Pune Airport to pick someone up and got charged ₹300 via FASTag on private vehicle.

Checked the parking rates later and ₹300 seems to be for commercial vehicles, not private cars.

Anyone else been charged ₹300 recently? Is this normal or am I missing something?

The government, PMC, and collectors are boasting about the development of the city. But at what condition? And at what consequences?

I still remember when I was a child, people from Mumbai used to come to Pune during summer vacations because Pune's climate used to be pleasant as compared to Mumbai. But when I see it today, the condition of Pune has by far the worst in the country. Unplanned urbanization, huge building constructions, enormous tree cutting this all is making the city the worst to stay.

I really miss my old city. If we keep going like this I'm afraid the city infrastructure will totally collapse in the next 5 yrs..

AskPune Why Do So Many People Ride Without Helmets in Pune? Do the Police Take Any Action?

Post image
158 Upvotes

I came to Pune from Bangalore for a trip, and I was surprised to see so many people riding bikes without helmets, even in the heart of the city. Is helmet enforcement not strict in Pune, or do the police take action against these violations? Just curious to know what locals think about this.

AskPune Pune District Collector and Regional Transport Authority (RTA) Chairman Jitendra Dudi has ordered ride-hailing platform R@pido to immediately halt its unlicensed bike-taxi services in the city.

• Upvotes

Pune District Collector and RTA Chairman Jitendra Dudi has reportedly ordered R@pido to immediately halt its unlicensed bike-taxi services in Pune.

I want to know what ordinary Pune residents think about this decision.

Bike taxis can be an affordable and convenient option, especially for short distances, avoiding traffic, and reaching places where public transport isn't easily accessible. At the same time, there are questions about licensing, passenger safety, and fair competition with other transport services.

Have you ever booked a R@pido or another bike taxi in Pune? How was your experience?

General/Rant Living in a rented apartment is a crime in Pune

118 Upvotes

As a tenant you are treated like a 3rd grade citizen in the society by the Home owners. If you try to give any input for the betterment, everyone starts asking"who are you, where do you stay, you don't have any right to demand things etc"

My owner doesn't have a dedicated parking for his unit. Before getting it on rent the broker promised everything, even showed one parking. Later we realised it was someone else's and we were asked to vacate the parking. 1 week of lafda then the owner gave us another parking. Now, again the same thing is happening. Society manager says I'll put a jammer on the car and fine you. Owner is nowhere to be found due to a "family emergency". Broker is not picking calls at all. Have no option but to park the car on the road.

But when the agreement time comes they suddenly turn into hungry lions. 12% increase every year, no negotiation. Broker also took "re-brokerage" which we reduced after a lot of negotiations.

Before anyone says "just leave" we are staying here for our child's school.
