A 52-year-old woman was seriously injured when an electrical insulator from a power tower broke, and part of it fell on her head. Residents blamed the Navi Mumbai Municipal Corporation, which has built a joggers' track next to power towers.
The incident happened in sector 5 of Airoli on Thursday around 8 pm when Mrunal Mahadik was jogging. Locals said suddenly there was a blast and part of the electrical insulator broke and hit her head. She was admitted to Fortis Hospital. A resident, Samir Patil said, "According to experts, there shouldn't be anything under these high voltage electricity towers. But NMMC has built a garden and joggers' track right under them to stop encroachment."
