What have the residents complained?
Despite paying a hefty advance maintenance for the year October 2024–October 2025, the residents have been getting water supply for just 10-15 minutes a day, which is not enough for basic needs. A resident from the building also said that as “out of four water tanks, only one is functional." According to a report by Mid Day, the residents paid advance mainteinence of Rs 3.17 lakh for 1 BHK while Rs 3.54 lakh for 2BHK.
In addition to this, residents alleged that sewage drain water has also been entering the water tank. This is the water that is used for domestic purposes such as drinking, bathing and kitchen. Even though everyone has a filter at home, but for how long it will the filters be fit to for such drain water, questioned a resident.
Another major concern the residents have highlighted is fire safety. Many buildings in Mumbai have recently experienced fire problems, which have resulted in fatalities and injuries. A resident informed that fire safety norms have also been ignored, as fire duct have been filled with cement bags and debris while the staircases for emergency exit are locked.
