The civic body claims measures are being taken to ensure that flooding doesn’t occur at spots that typically never fail to get inundated during the monsoon. Officials said the construction of a 1.9-crore-litre-capacity holding pond at Pramod Mahajan Kala Park, which will eliminate water-logging at Hindmata, will be finished before the monsoon while two mini-pumping stations will come up at the Mogra nullah to ensure the Andheri subway is flood-free.
