He extended his heartiest wishes to the citizens of Pimpri-Chinchwad on this momentous day.
The PCMC was formed in 1982, after the state government decided to merge four gram panchayats of Pimpri, Chinchwad, Bhosari and Akurdi to form the Pimpri-Chinchwad Municipal Council. The inaugural civic general elections were held in 1986, during which Landge was elected as the first mayor of Pimpri-Chinchwad.
Today marks a significant milestone in the history of the PCMC, and it is sure to bring cheer to the citizens of Pimpri-Chinchwad.
