Environment is major issues.

Untreated Sewage: Rapid population growth outpaces the capacity of Sewage Treatment Plants (STPs), leading to untreated sewage and solid waste being dumped directly into the Mula-Mutha rivers.Water Scarcity and Mismanagement: The city experiences highly unequal water distribution, causing excessive wastewater and putting a strain on the groundwater quality. Riverfront Controversies: The PMC's Riverfront Development (RFD) projects have sparked ecological concerns regarding flooding risks and habitat destruction
Waste Generation and Management High Output: Pune generates thousands of tons of municipal solid waste daily, making it one of the highest waste-producing cities in India. Processing Inefficiencies: Inadequate door-to-door collection in peripheral areas and inefficiencies in waste processing lead to illegal dumping in open spaces and water bodies
