Representatives of Prahar Apang Kranti Sanghatana submitted a memorandum highlighting issues related to financial assistance, property tax concessions, self-employment and accessibility in public spaces.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The memorandum was submitted during the ongoing Navratri festival organised by Maheshdada Landge Sports Foundation and Shivanjali Sakhi Manch, where citizens and representatives from various sectors are meeting the MLA to raise their concerns.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The organisation has sought a one-time grant of \u20b92 lakh for eligible persons with disabilities to repair and modify their homes. It has also demanded 50% property tax concessions for eligible beneficiaries who lack Index-II documents but possess alternative ownership records, including those recorded as occupants in property documents.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Other demands include \u20b91 lakh financial assistance for eligible persons who received \u20b910,000 for assistive equipment in 2017, and retrospective benefits from April 1, 2013, under the financial assistance scheme for marriages between two persons with disabilities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The organisation has also sought permission for disabled stallholders licensed before 2012 to continue their businesses at existing locations. Additionally, it has demanded ramps, accessible pathways and toilets in municipal gardens and recreational centres, along with accessibility audits of all PCMC buildings.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Landge said he would discuss the demands with the municipal administration and pursue appropriate action within the applicable rules to ensure eligible beneficiaries receive scheme benefits.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">City president Shatrughna Kate, party leader Prashant Shitole, Standing Committee chairman Abhishek Barne and organisation representatives Datta Bhosale, Sangita Joshi, Sagar Sufal, Revanath Kardile and Sanjay Munde were present.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Prahar Apang Kranti Sanghatana seeks financial aid, property tax concessions, self-employment support and accessible public facilities in PCMC Pimpri-Chinchwad :<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":3487,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"colormag_page_container_layout":"default_layout","colormag_page_sidebar_layout":"default_layout","footnotes":""},"categories":[33],"tags":[57,56],"class_list":["post-3486","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-pimpri-chinchwad","tag-maharashtra","tag-pcmc"],"magazineBlocksPostFeaturedMedia":{"thumbnail":"https:\/\/theleadernews.in\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/landge-150x150.jpg","medium":"https:\/\/theleadernews.in\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/landge-300x182.jpg","medium_large":"https:\/\/theleadernews.in\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/landge.jpg","large":"https:\/\/theleadernews.in\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/landge.jpg","1536x1536":"https:\/\/theleadernews.in\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/landge.jpg","2048x2048":"https:\/\/theleadernews.in\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/landge.jpg","colormag-highlighted-post":"https:\/\/theleadernews.in\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/landge-392x272.jpg","colormag-featured-post-medium":"https:\/\/theleadernews.in\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/landge-390x205.jpg","colormag-featured-post-small":"https:\/\/theleadernews.in\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/landge-130x90.jpg","colormag-featured-image":"https:\/\/theleadernews.in\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/landge.jpg","colormag-default-news":"https:\/\/theleadernews.in\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/landge-150x150.jpg","colormag-featured-image-large":"https:\/\/theleadernews.in\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/landge.jpg"},"magazineBlocksPostAuthor":{"name":"Editor","avatar":"https:\/\/secure.gravatar.com\/avatar\/1d5153bc4b578f38328e6ec4367b899f9035bc845d2933bfe4a714a364de8dbd?s=96&d=mm&r=g"},"magazineBlocksPostCommentsNumber":false,"magazineBlocksPostExcerpt":"Prahar Apang Kranti Sanghatana seeks financial aid, property tax concessions, self-employment support and accessible public facilities in PCMC Pimpri-Chinchwad :","magazineBlocksPostCategories":["Pimpri Chinchwad"],"magazineBlocksPostViewCount":6,"magazineBlocksPostReadTime":2,"magazine_blocks_featured_image_url":{"full":["https:\/\/theleadernews.in\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/landge.jpg",520,316,false],"medium":["https:\/\/theleadernews.in\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/landge-300x182.jpg",300,182,true],"thumbnail":["https:\/\/theleadernews.in\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/landge-150x150.jpg",150,150,true]},"magazine_blocks_author":{"display_name":"Editor","author_link":"https:\/\/theleadernews.in\/?author=3"},"magazine_blocks_comment":0,"magazine_blocks_author_image":"https:\/\/secure.gravatar.com\/avatar\/1d5153bc4b578f38328e6ec4367b899f9035bc845d2933bfe4a714a364de8dbd?s=96&d=mm&r=g","magazine_blocks_category":"<a href=\"#\" class=\"category-link category-link-33\">Pimpri Chinchwad<\/a>","yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.3 -
