Despite several drowning incidents in the water tank near Modern bakery, the Aarey Chief Executive Officer's (CEO) Office seems to have turned a blind eye. On Sunday, when mid-day visited the area, the team was shocked to see several children swimming in the huge tank.

Speaking to mid-day, Aarey resident Imran Udat said, "The tank is infamous for many reasons. Earlier the tank was covered with metal grills, but those were stolen many years back. Now, despite the government asking people to maintain social distancing, children between 5 and 15 years jump into the tank and risk their lives. The police officers and Aarey CEO office should take serious note of this and take action against those swimming in the tank."
