Mumbai is witnessing significant progress in its roadworks, as authorities strive to meet the May 31 deadline before the onset of monsoon season, according to Maharashtra minister Ashish Shelar.
Following inspections across the city, Shelar noted that 65% of the current roadwork projects are complete, though some will not meet the intended deadline. He has instructed officials to finalize road curing by May 20, emphasizing that no new projects should begin in the lead-up to monsoon.
Shelar criticized previous leadership under Uddhav and Aaditya Thackeray for a slower pace in road construction, comparing it with the current administration's efforts, which he claims are five times faster. The Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation guarantees roads will be clear of obstructions as monsoon nears.
