As many as 22 cases of dengue have been reported from a Kandivli-based high-rise this month alone. The BMC immediately sent a notice to the society asking them to take precautionary measures after the inspection team found mosquito larvae in the society's water line. Naman Towers in Kandivli West has now changed the water pipeline that was accumulating rainwater and causing mosquito larvae to breed inside it.

A resident of Naman society said that the water pipeline has been changed and that "repair work is almost complete." He said, "Around 15-20 days ago, two residents were admitted to the hospital with high fever and were later diagnosed with dengue. The number of cases soon kept going up. So, we informed the BMC."
