NMC is facing huge loss due to failed registration of city hawkers. Unauthorized hawkers are growing in the city which causes lots of trouble to the moving traffic. NMC has incurred a loss of Rs 4.99 crores.
Scrap worth rupees 2-3 crores is waiting to be disposed off. NMC ( Nagpur Municipal Corporation) which is financially crunched will make lots of money by selling off this scrap.
The scarp comes from heavy machinery and iron used in various departments like sanitation, electrical, and hospitals. Scrap had been sold 12 years ago since then no action has been taken to clear the scrap. The issue is still pending as no one wants to get their hands into it. Lots of meetings and committees had been formed but to no vail as the scarp worth crores is still lying.

NMC has failed to sort out parking problems till 2011, though the move to solve the problem was taken in June 2007 by paying crores of rupees to L&T Consulting Engineers Ltd to prepare master plan for transport system of Nagpur City 2031.
Number of vehicles has increased so they need more space for parking. On failure to provide them space, vehicles are seen parked in No Parking zones. Heavily crowded places need parking space so that the roads are not cluttered with unevenly parked vehicles, and the vehicle owner not heavily charged.
