Realising it had dug its own pothole, so to speak, the BMC on Tuesday sobered down its almost threat to citizens who voluntarily fill them up. After receiving a barrage of outraged responses to the tweet that said filling potholes by citizens was illegal, the civic body came out with a new statement saying they welcomed citizens to work along with BMC engineers to fill potholes. » P03
Over the past one year, mid-day has consistently reported on citizens' demand for allowing gardens to stay open for longer hours. The BMC too finally agreed and is now even considering keeping some gardens open round the clock. Other aspects regarding safety, etc too were discussed at Tuesday's meeting while the BMC frames its garden policy. 

They will have Road Volunteers, the tweet read. Ward officers will now hold meetings with citizen bodies to chalk out a plan in this regard.
