Residents living near the Deonar dumping ground have alleged that ongoing sewage line work by the Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation (BMC) is causing severe inconvenience. The poor condition of the roads, worsened by the unfinished project, poses a threat to both motorists and pedestrians.
Locals claim that a 250 to 300-metre stretch of road from Kamla Raman Nagar toward the dumping ground has been dug up at two locations for the sewage work. However, the work remains incomplete, leaving the road in a hazardous state.
Hundreds of families and daily commuters, especially those on two- and three-wheelers, use this road regularly. Due to its current condition, it’s difficult to even identify where the road is in some sections. The surface is riddled with potholes and partially dug-up areas, making travel risky and uncomfortable.
