Aircel did what BMC did not

Plied dingy at flooded Milan subway ferrying marooned Mumbaikars




At your service: Aircel employees row stranded Mumbaikars at Santacruz's Milan Subway to safety.

MiD DAY photographer Sayed Sameer Abedi, out shooting flooded areas, was, however, surprised to see an inflatable rubber dingy ferrying people from one end of the subway to the other at around 2.30 pm.

No, it's not a BMC initiative, but part of a corporate social responsibility exercise by mobile service provider Aircel.

Trained staff operated the boat, which carried out numerous trips all through the afternoon, till the
water receded.
