While officers from Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation (BMC) have maintained that even after filing FIR against the culprits behind illegal banners, they receive no update whatsoever from the police department, the officers at G South ward were astonished to receive a call from the Senior Inspector of Dadar Police Station, who requested them to take action against the illegal banners in his jurisdiction. The BMC officers confirmed that it was the first time that a police officer proactively stepped into the shoes of a complainant and pointed out an important civic problem.
