Nagpur Mahanagar Pariwahan Limited ( NMPL) has now decided to impose rent over parked buses on the road at Rs 2/ Sq ft. The decision was taken over a meeting between NMPL chairperson and Mayor Archana Dehankar. Parking places had been allotted to them near Patwardhan ground, Hingna and near zero miles but still the buses were parked on roads. The bus owner says they find it difficult to use parking space at Hingna as it will cause lots of fuel consumption, and buses run from sitabuldi to all other locations.

The situation is really grave and the new step taken by NMPL is sure to bring relief to the moving traffic near Mor Bhavan.
