In the bustling township of Mumbra, the issue of illegal hawkers is a major concern among residents due to the substantial traffic snarls they cause, particularly during peak hours. The situation prompted a group of residents to meet the assistant municipal commissioner on October 28 to ensure decisive measures are taken to alleviate traffic congestion stemming from the presence of illegal hawkers.
The delegation was led by Nationalist Congress Party (NCP) leader Shamim Khan.
