Warning bells have pealed and it is in our best interests that we pay heed. The civic body has identified nine rail overbridges in the city, which are dangerous. With the Ganapati festival barely one week away, officials have suggested that the number of people on these bridges be regulated.

Though this is a low-key celebration, the warning should be enough to keep in mind that there should be no overcrowding this year. It would be good if the authorities put up signboards at these locations stating that the said infra is dangerous, or whichever official terminology can be used, to describe the precariousness.
