The BMC bridge at Dadar railway station has got half a roof, exactly like the one at Elphinstone at the time of the stampede. While the Western Railway has built a roof on its part of the bridge along with repairing the staircases, the Central Railway managers seem clueless about their role. The result is half the bridge being sheltered, and half of it open to the sun and rain.

Despite closed-door eight-hour-long meetings with all stakeholders, including the state government and BMC teams chaired by Railway Minister Piyush Goyal for effective coordination and working, the ground realities remain much the same, with the Dadar bridge awaiting another tragedy.
