In order to cover the open drains and sewers, Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation (BMC) has decided to use polycarbonate (blue plastic) sheet on a trial basis in Borivali and Dahisar.
For the last few days, the complaints made by the people living in Dahisar (West) and Borivali (East) to BMC regarding the open sewers have been increasing. The locals have repeatedly complained about the drains overflowing in some areas.
With no caps to cover the drains, the locals have complained about increasing diseases in the area which is affecting people’s health. Therefore, the BMC has decided to cover the sewers with the polycarbonate sheets.
