Despite the desilting work of the open storm water drains, flooding in the city will be inevitable this monsoon as BMC hasn’t found any solution to the waste thrown into nullahs by the slum dwellers. BMC officials discussed various solutions like the appointment of a centralised agency, covering nullahs, installing nets over nullahs, etc. But with just 15 days until the arrival of the monsoon, none of the solutions have materialised.

The BMC started nullah cleaning work in April and till now as per the estimation over 93 percent cleaning work is completed. But no one gives a guarantee that the city will not be flooded this monsoon.
