After ending the pothole challenge, Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation (BMC) is now all set to come a new one. For those unaware, pothole challenge urged people to report a pothole to the authorities and they will be awarded ₹500 if the pothole isn't filled within 24 hours. Now, Kiran Dighavkar, Assistant Commissioner of G/North ward has started the footpath challenge.
Dighavkar tweeted about the same and stated that people from Shivaji Park, Dadar and Mahim can report footpaths which are in a bad condition on a WhatsApp group and the action will be taken in 24-48 hours. However, there will be no price money for the person if the footpath isn't fixed in the given time.
