Mumbai: Many public toilets in Mankhurd Shivaji Nagar assembly constituency are in a very dilapidated (out of repair) condition. At many places, these toilets are not needed by the local citizens and are unused. Local MLA Abu Asim Azmi has demanded that all such unused and dilapidated toilets be bulldozed at the earliest and this land be used for public welfare works. MLA Azmi has expressed his determination to build a ‘generic medical shop’, a modern ‘gym’ for women only and a ‘kindergarten’ for children on these lands for the convenience of the citizens. In this regard, correspondence has been written to the Municipal Commissioner and the administrative officers of ‘M East’ ward and it is strongly demanded that this proposal be approved at the earliest. Public places should be used for the direct benefit of the people. Removing unused toilets and providing medical and social facilities there will greatly benefit the women and children of the area. If the administration gives immediate permission, we will start the real work.
