IAS officer Tukaram Mundhe’s approach, reputation for reforms signal positive change for colony’s future

Tukaram Mundhe visited several locations in Aarey Milk Colony
In a promising development, Aarey Milk Colony may witness revitalisation under the guidance of newly appointed Animal Husbandry and Dairy Development Department secretary, IAS officer Tukaram Mundhe. Known for his decisive approach, Mundhe’s recent visit to the colony has raised hopes for addressing illegal encroachments and non-dairy activities.
Mundhe’s direct approach and administrative prowess position him as a beacon of change for Aarey Milk Colony. During his visit, he firmly instructed staff members to take stringent action against unlawful encroachments, unauthorised structures, and activities prohibited within the Eco-Sensitive Zone. Sources from the Aarey CEO office further reveal that Mundhe stressed the need to take action against cattle farm owners who are leasing designated spaces for purposes unrelated to dairy production.
