While Mumbaikars flocked to Juhu beach over the weekend to catch a glimpse of the Panama-flagged MT Pavit, an oil tanker, which ran aground around 11 am on Sunday, residents of Mora Village adjacent to Juhu beach are a jittery lot. Residents from areas close to Juhu beach said that they were also not happy with the ship becoming a touristu00a0attraction and that the thronging crowds only serve to disturb them
The reason for the residents' concern is the possibility of leakage of nearly 10 millitonnes of oil from the 77-metre ship.
