The BMC Dahisar West Swimming Pool, which was opened to the public on April 1, was shut down just 73 days later, after its tiles started crumbling. The BMC closed the pool in the Pramila Nagar area on June 13, citing “maintenance” work. A notice has been pasted at the pool entrance, informing members about its closure until June 28, a report stated in this paper.

The tiles had broken just a few days after the opening but persons at the pool were quoted as saying this is common and repairs are on.
