After mid-day highlighted how housing societies around D’Monte Park in Bandra West were receiving murky water containing coliform bacteria and red worms, the Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation (BMC) claimed it had identified the source of contamination and solved the issue. Civic officials visited the area on Friday and, using a special camera, examined the inner lining of 400 metres of piping to check for leakage, seepage or fractures.
