Although the Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation (BMC) is working to curb illegal debris dumping, RA Kidwai Marg in Wadala has once again turned into a hotspot. According to locals, unknown vehicles have dumped debris on the road four times in April alone. Nimish Malda, a local resident, said, “In April, debris was dumped four times at the same spot outside the P&T Colony. The latest instance was on the night of April 29. I posted a complaint with the BMC on social media on April 30, but the debris has not been cleared yet.”
Malda confirmed that the dumping occurred on April 7, 12, 18, and 29. “Last year, too, debris was dumped regularly. It only stopped after mid-day reported on it,” he said.
