The recent heavy showers have brought back potholes on Mumbai’s roads. While citizens continue to suffer due to them, the Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation’s (BMC) pothole tracking system barely has 421 potholes noted, over half of which have been attended to, as per the data. According to the pothole reporting system, majority of the 421 potholes were added recently and out of them over 255 have already been repaired.

Many people have been taking to social media to complain about potholes. While these complaints on social media get the attention of the BMC, they are not reported on the system by its staff, said officials. The potholes are mainly reported around civic road works, bridge and Metro construction work.
