This year, the BMC has planned to build holding tanks to collect the receding floodwater in the areas prone to waterlogging. The first project is underway at Hindmata, which gets flooded every year even after a normal rainfall. The BMC is close to completing the work of laying micro-tunnels under the rail lines of both Central Railway and Western Railway.
The floodwater at Hindmata will be drained out through these tunnels and will be collected in a holding tank, being constructed at Pramod Mahajan Kala Udyan in Dadar West.
