PMC fails to utilise ₹250 crore G-20 summit funds; ₹70 crore to be returned

Hindustan Times  

Of the ₹250 crore received from the state government for city development during the G-20 summit, the Pune Municipal Corporation will have to return ₹70 crore as it failed to use the funds in the past two years. The International G-20 Summit meetings were held in Pune in January and November 2023 to promote sustainable development. One of the PMC accounts department senior officials said, “Of the ₹50 crore initially given to PMC for G-20 preparations, only ₹37 crore was used while works worth ₹13 crore remained on paper. As a result, the government has sent a letter requesting return of ₹70 crore.” PMC is hurrying to avoid returning the unspent funds to the government.
