About 10 residential buildings located in Jain Society at Sion have been facing an uphill battle against unauthorised street parking of aggregate cabs in their quiet internal lanes. These vehicles are parked in their lanes named ‘24A’, ‘24B’, ‘25’, and ‘18’, throughout the day and overnight as well. Several vehicles are abandoned for many days at length, and also have punctured tyres and rusting along the borders of windshields due to this. The residents said they have been experiencing this since the COVID-19 pandemic. 

In December 2024, residents of the area had written to the joint commissioner of police (Mumbai traffic) and were assured redressal. However, they were also told that there is no rule that specifically disallows aggregate cabs from parking at locations where private vehicles would park their cars as well. If they are not breaking any parking rules, such as double lane parking, or parking in a specified ‘no parking’ area, they (aggregate cabs) cannot be fined by the traffic police.
