While both the civic body and the state government are trying to make Mumbai 24x7 a success, they seem to be on different pages when it comes to policies on the project. The Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation (BMC) has drafted a Food Truck policy, which remains different from the guidelines given by the state.
While BMC's policy disallows seating area near the truck due to hygiene concerns, the state's guidelines had said otherwise. While the state had allowed trucks to operate only between 10 pm and 6 am, BMC's draft has allowed timings under the Shops and Establishment Act, which allows 24x7 operations.
