After spending crores to tackle the flooding issue at Hindmata in Parel, the Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation (BMC) is spending another Rs 13.65 crore for an overhaul of the area's British-era drainage network in the next 18 months. It has already appointed a contractor to reconstruct the dilapidated arch-shaped drain passing through the area.
