Mumbai News: BMC to Spend ₹132 Cr on Fixing Potholes

Mumbai: As monsoon is just around the corner, the BMC has approved 17 proposals, worth Rs132 crore, to fix potholes of the city and suburbs. Few months ago, the civic body had allocated Rs50 lakh to each of the 24 administrative wards for the same purpose.
Needless to say that every year, the BMC faces severe criticism for poor roads. Hence, it’s continuously taking several measures to improve roads as well as its image. One such prominent step includes taking over the Eastern and Western Express Highways from the Mumbai Metropolitan Region Development Authority for repairs. The BMC will shell out Rs140 crore and Rs90 crore, respectively, for patching both the highways.
Cold mix technology used until now
Until recently, the civic body was using cold mix technology for fixing potholes, but it turned out to be ineffective as the roads were damaged in heavy spells of rain. The BMC then switched to reactive asphalt and rapid hardening concrete methods for patching road craters.
According to the proposals, potholes in the city will be fixed with the reactive asphalt technique while rapid hardening concrete way will be used in suburbs.
Pointers :
Reactive asphalt method to be used in:
Santacruz
Bandra
Kurla
Chembur
Ghatkopar
Rapid hardening concrete way for areas in:
Andheri
Goregaon
Borivali
Dahisar
Malad

Fear of Nepal-like situation arising in India: Abu Asim Azmi

ABU ASIM AZMI
After the violence and unrest in Mumbai Nepal, Maharashtra Samajwadi Party leader and MLA Abu Asim Azmi also expressed concern about the situation in India and said that Prime Minister Narendra Modi needs to sit down and take the opposition along so that a situation like Nepal does not arise in India. Since the governments have become corrupt and corrupt, that is why people in Nepal have protested on the streets and violent clashes have taken place. He said that corruption and mismanagement are on the rise in India. Big contracts are being given to the rich. From selling vegetables to everything being given to Adani and Reliance, where will the poor go in such a situation? He said that those who believe in Gandhiji will never tolerate corruption and mismanagement. He said that just as Gandhiji drove away the British, the people will unite against corruption. Azmi said that the situation that has arisen in Nepal has also had an impact on India because violence and insurgency are common in India’s neighboring countries Bangladesh, Sri Lanka and now Nepal. In such a situation, India also needs to keep an eye on it. Expressing concern over the situation in Nepal, Azmi said that such situations arise when the government becomes corrupt, incompetent and insensitive. The same has happened in Nepal too, so we also need to remain alert.
