Mumbai civic chief inspects pre-monsoon work on Harbour line

Top civic and Railway officials today carried out an inspection of ongoing pre-monsoon cleaning and desilting work of culverts and nullah flowing along side tracks on the Harbour corridor.
Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation (BMC) Commissioner Ajoy Mehta and General Manager of Central Railway D K Sharma were part of the inspection team.
The officials reviewed the progress of the cleaning and desilting work on the Harbour corridor, part of the Central Railway, to ensure tracks are not flooded during the monsoon, said a civic official.
Mehta asked the Railway officials to ensure nullahs are unclogged before monsoon so that train services are not affected during rains, he said.

A statement issued by the civic body said Mehta visited Masjid, Sandhurst Road, Wadala, GTB Nagar, Chuna Bharti, Govandi and Mankhurd stations.
