The Nashik Municipal Corporation (NMC) on Thursday pulled down 24 unauthorised shops located in Shalimar area of the city, an official said.
The action was taken based on the orders issued by NMC Commissioner Dr Chandrakant Pulkundwar.
"A team of NMC employees removed the 24 shops located adjacent to a Muslim burial ground in Shalimar area. These shops sold various items like garments and shoes. For the past 26 years, these units caused traffic congestion in the area and even walking on the route had become difficult for people," the official said.
