A few days ago, residents of a Mumbra neighbourhood woke up to find the local bus stop had been demolished and two trees had been brutally trimmed. Yesterday, a new bus stop turned up just a few feet away from the spot and only one thing had changed – it was no longer standing in front of a sweet shop. The shop belongs to the well-known chain called Ajwa Sweets, and will be launched in a week.

The old bus stop was partially obscuring the soon-to-be launched sweet shop, but a few days later, it was replaced by a new bus stop just a few feet away blocking the way of a residential building. Pic/Sameer Markande
