Here Is The Post By X User
In a post by X user, (@surajmordani) stated, "The whole city's infrastructure is crumbling. This is from Vile Parle today morning, right outside St. Joseph's Convent. Kids use this sidewalk regularly. Look at the state of basic infrastructure, it's in absolute shambles."
Additionally, a similar issue was raised by another Mumbai resident of Vile Parle, who shared a picture of dismantled footpath with a caption that said, "Art installation by my BMC at SV Road pavement, Vile Parle, opposite C. Bhogilal."
The Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation (BMC), which is the civic body of Mumbai that is responsible for authorising infrastructure of the city, responded to the post, stating, "We regret your inconvenience. We have informed Ward KW BMC to attend to this."
Netizens React
Netizens reacted to the post by highlighting various issues in Mumbai, such as dirty water and crumbling footpaths. One user humorously suggested that they are preparing for grave-digging and mentioned that some practice is needed before everything can be addressed.
Another user raised serious concerns about water quality, stating that while Mumbaikars are focused on improving the condition of roads and footpaths and are requesting more Metro coaches, no one seems to be demanding clean water.
