Mumbai Suburban Guardian Minister Ashish Shelar directed the BMC to not undertake any new road works after May 20 and ensure that all the roads in the city are motorable before monsoon. Shelar inspected several work sites in the western suburbs where road concretisation is underway. 

Speaking to the media, Shelar said that as promised by CM Devendra Fadnavis and DCM Eknath Shinde, Mumbaikars will have excellent roads within the next three years. He added that compared to the dire state of Mumbai’s roads during former CM Uddhav Thackeray’s tenure, the current government has improved more than 60% of the roads in Mumbai in just one year.

The BMC has the deadline of May 31 to complete all the on-going road works and needs to make all the roads motorable before monsoon. The remaining roads concretisation work will be carried forward to the next season.
