The badly damaged, leaking portions of the Kurla subway roof

The next time you take the Kurla subway, you might want to watch your head. Just two months after mid-day reported how the newly-opened subway - connecting the western and eastern sides of the suburb - had fallen into neglect, parts of its ceiling have begun to fall apart. According to BMC officials, leakages from railway pumps are eating into the plaster and cement of the roof, and heavily damaging it. The underpass was one of BMC's most ambitious projects.
