Every coin has two sides. So while a large number of citizens are up in arms to ensure cellular companies do not put up towers on schools or on top of residential buildings, several other residents who stay in Maharashtra Housing and Area Development Authority (MHADA) homes, are complaing about weak mobile networks at home and resultant call drops.

Now, tired of receiving these complaints, the housing authority has given permission to a private company to carry out a technical survey of mobile networks in MHADA buildings with an aimto improve the mobile network connectivity in these houses. Several residents of old and new MHADA colonies have recentlycomplained about call drop, call disconnection and no networkin their houses. Speaking to Sunday MiD DAY, Vipul Mane a resident of a MHADA colony at Dindoshi said, “I have been staying in this colony for more than 25 years but the problem, which irritates me a lot, is the unavailability of mobile network because of which every time I have to go out of my house to make or receive calls.”
