Panvel: All hoardings, flex banners, and advertisements within the Panvel Municipal Corporation (PMC) limits must now feature a QR code. Civic Chief Mangesh Chitale, during a review meeting on various development projects, directed officials to take immediate action against any hoardings, banners, or advertisements lacking a QR code.
