The plastic pandal from where fire officials have been working
Fire brigade officials in Mumbra, where nearly 80 per cent buildings have been declared dangerous, need to be extra vigilant and available 24x7. Unfortunately, their own office is a pandal. After the TMC demolished the fire station in the area, the officials are forced to sit inside a plastic shed and wait for emergency calls. Two years ago, even their residential quarters were razed, forcing them to travel from their homes whenever there is an emergency.
