With no sign of the Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation BMC taking up work on an internal road at Sahar village, local residents have started building part of it on their own with paver blocks. With the monsoon already here, they plan to complete a temporary stretch of 10 mts so that people are not inconvenienced.

Social worker Nicholas Almeida from the Watchdog Foundation alleged that the local residents had no option but to get the work done on their own due to neglect by the BMC, and inaction by local elected representatives. The road is over 100 metres long but the residents intend to use paver blocks to build 30 mts of it. The work began three days back.
