Mumbai’s residents are questioning the value of their lives under the current government’s rule following a recent incident at a metro construction site in Mira Road, according to Shiv Sena (UBT) leader Aaditya Thackeray. The leader took to social media to criticize the ruling Mahayuti government, asking if the lives of Mumbai residents have become worthless under their leadership.
On Monday, construction material reportedly fell onto the road near Thunga Hospital during the building of Metro Line 9. A school van managed to narrowly escape damage when a metro slab and construction material collapsed from above. Thackeray expressed concern over the incident, questioning who would be held responsible if a similar mishap had occurred that day.
Safety concerns have been raised following the incident, which reportedly involved a large rock falling from a great height and striking a vehicle carrying school students. No injuries were reported, but the event has prompted calls for a third-party safety audit of all ongoing metro construction works in Mumbai and the Mumbai Metropolitan Region.
