A high-level inquiry committee has been formed by the Mumbai Metropolitan Region Development Authority (MMRDA) after a parapet segment from the under-construction Metro Line-4 corridor collapsed in Mulund West on Saturday afternoon, an incident that MLA Mihir Kotecha alleged was caused by negligence on the part of the authority and its contractor.

“The incident happened due to MMRDA's negligence. Instead of four hooks, only two were used to lift the part of the bridge. We have evidence to prove that. This is negligence of contractor. We have asked for suspension of the contractor,” Kotecha said.
