Keeping track of this week8217;s snakes and ladders
Up
District Collector Vijaykumar Gautam. For sitting up and taking note of the violation of the Land Revenue Code in Koregaon Park. He has ordered an extensive survey of all 154 plots in the area.

The judiciary. The Bombay High Court upheld the death sentences of two youths in the Rathi murder case. Narain Choudhary and Jitu Gehlot brutally murdered seven members of the Rathi family, including a woman in an advanced state of pregnancy five years ago in the city.

M F Husain. His art beats for Kargil. The bare-footed artist turned up in shoes to leave his imprint on a canvas that fetched Rs 4,20,000. The money will go to the Army Central Welfare Fund. Morbai Naraindas Budhrani Cancer Research Institute. It was a giant leap forward for the city institute when it operated successfully upon 5-year-old Pranav Khare, a beta thalessemia major patient.

The PCB. Cattle owners who think the city8217;s roads are free for their cattle to roam about may have to do a rethink. The offenders will be prosecuted if they fail to comply with the rules. The PCMC. It will soon take steps that will curb illegal parking. Roads that have haphazard parking will be identified for the purpose. Down The PMC. For ignoring the plight of the animals at the Peshwe Park and Katraj zoos. Four animals lost their lives in a month. A spotted deer that perished on Wednesday at Katraj was the latest.

The dog menace. The city8217;s streets are full of stray dogs that chase passers-by. Corporators alleged that the civic administration has religiously turned a Nelson8217;s eye toward stray dogs.

The brazenness with which history-sheeter D D Singh and his brothers attacked two men with swords. The henchmen attacked Sairam Pillay and hacked to death his cousin Dashrath Trawdan. Pillay died on Tuesday.

Shops on MG Road. Not content with the area they have, they are grabbing the pavement space putting the pedestrians to inconvenience.
