Pimpri-Chinchwad police have booked 50 Ganesh mandals for violating noise regulations during immersion processions. The mandals were cited for using DJ systems and laser lights beyond permissible limits. Forty seized DJ setups are awaiting seizure, with police seizing equipment from the remaining mandals after apprehension. The crackdown occurred during immersions after repeated appeals by authorities fell on deaf ears.
Meetings held with mandals before Ganeshotsav urged adherence to noise limits. Cases spanned all four police zones, with Zone 2 accounting for the most violations, registering 21 cases. Zone 1 followed with 15 cases. The seized DJ gear is estimated to be worth significant sums.
