Nikhil Rane (42), builder of Vanshaj InSignia at Baner - Sus, group housing project of IT professionals working in Hinjewadi, who was shot at by unidentified assailants in broad daylight at his office on Jungli Maharaj Road on November 23, passed away at 10.45 am on Monday at the Sancheti Hospital due to spinal shock complications.

Insignia group in Pune tried to form a group of IT pros to build their own housing complex. Unfortunately the builder who undertook their order, was shot at by unknown assailants a while back outside his Pune JM Road office.

While the primary motive seems to be a dispute in the purchase of land, it is indeed sad that crime, politics and the construction industry are so intertwined.
