This is to highlight the debris and garbage issues at Nagindas Master Road in Fort which are not tackled even after multiple complaints have been made to the authorities. There are major encroachments issues too by hawkers.

It is observed that the dumpers used by BMC to transport garbage, are open-topped. This causes the filth to fly off and pollute the air. Sometimes, when the wet garbage is carried, it spills on the road. For cleaning the dirtied roads, the BMC, again uses separate water tankers. It is just a waste of time, energy and money.

For the past year there is an open MTNL panel outside Pushpanjali building, 11th Road, Khar (W), close to Madhu Park. Isn't that dangerous? A request to MTNL to have a cover installed on this panel.
