An Entity of Type : owl:Thing, within Data Space : 134.155.108.49:8890 associated with source dataset(s)

Pune is derived from the word "pun", with the accented 'e' added later when the French first heard of the city. Why this place was called the city of puns was due to the liberal use of sexual innuendoes by Pune's municipal body when it comes to naming local areas. Pimpri, Lavale and Bhosari being prime examples. While Pimpri can be passed off as an occupation related name, the name Bhosari, seems to be well accepted by the locals who take pride in claiming ownership of a residential apartment in Bhosari.
