Mumbai: A video of a man raising concerns over a dug-up road and severe air pollution at a school in Mumbai’s Khar has gone viral on social media. In the video, the man shows two instances. First, he shows the road outside the school, which has been dug up, leaving only a narrow lane for entry and exit. He claimed they visited the school to play a sport and were charged Rs 3,000 per hour. Questioning the high fee, they compared it with the poor condition of the surrounding infrastructure.

In another instance, he pointed out the air quality inside the school ground, stating that the AQI had reached 385, raising safety concerns for children.

Some other user wrote, "Almost everyone in India, i.e. 140 crore people, is suffering in silence. Not sure what will cause co-ordinated mass uprising against this torture, loot, denial of rights, injustice and harassment of the aam junta"

"On the bright side, your workout starts even before you enter the venue!" a user joked.

One user highlighted that Mumbai is not the same anymore, adding, "It's getting destroyed everywhere and always on stall and air quality is also very poor due to no control of administration !!"
