Mumbai’s next big underground tunnels are taking shape!
The Coastal Road extension between Mindspace, Malad and Charkop Creek will feature 3.9-km twin tunnels, running nearly 40 metres underground, with four lanes in each direction.
The giant Tunnel Boring Machines have undergone their first major factory tests in Chennai. With a 15.6-metre cutterhead and an 87-metre-long machine, tunnelling is expected to begin in May 2027. The launch shaft work at Charkop has already begun. Once completed, these tunnels will become part of Mumbai’s proposed signal-free Versova-Dahisar corridor.

#SRA matlab #Scam after Scam..
Thousands of #crores in #revenue have been siphoned off from the SRA, Who is responsible ?
And who is shielding this siphoning of funds ??
Four direct questions for the government:
1. Who exactly is Mr. Naveen Makhija ? What position does he hold, and under what authority does he attend SRA meetings and sit beside Mr. #AseemGupta ?
2. There is talk that an attempt is being made to 'regularize' the SRA's illegal permissions by amending Regulation 33(11) of the #DCPR 2034. Is this true ?
And what is Mr. Makhija's role in this ?
3. By encroaching on the powers of the #Brihanmumbai #Municipal Corporation, it is granting permissions under SRA Regulation 33(11) without having the authority to do so. Will the government stop this immediately, or turn a blind eye and give developers free rein?
4. As the SRA's chairperson, will the Hon. #ChiefMinister @Dev_Fadnavis recover the thousands of crores in revenue lost under 33(11) ?
5. Who are the #developers benefiting the most from these permissions—will that list be made public ?
The BMC Commissioner's letters (2024–26), the government's directive of 15 October 2024, the High Court's observations—everything is on record.
All that remains is the government's answer 😉 – at Mumbai, India

99 out of 100 most polluted cities in the World are in India right now.
Keep yourself informed on your local air quality with AQI.in. Stay safe, stay aware, and take necessary precautions.
Tell us in the comments what the air quality in your area is right now.

According to Bombay High Court orders 2026, we have ensured that there will be stoppage of Fireworks in Shivaji Maharaj Park not only for Diwali but the year throughout.
We have directly engaged Shivaji Park Police Station, BMC Gnorth Commissioner for enforcing this in our Park

We have written to CM @Dev_Fadnavis urging that no firecracker be burst unless it meets the Environment (Protection) Act and the Bombay High Court's orders.
In 2006, every cracker we tested with MPCB broke the 125 dB limit, with the loudest at 144.9 dB. In 2026, the loudest reached 93 dB. Twenty years of awareness and enforcement have worked.
But 93 dB is still above the permitted limit in every zone of Mumbai, where even industrial zones allow only 75 dB by day.
The bigger gap now is on the box. Many crackers, including "green" ones, skip mandatory decibel levels, carry fake QR codes or none, and hide what's inside. Our tests found banned chemicals, including barium.
AQI has already hit 163 in Vile Parle West, Shivaji Nagar and around T2, a day before Diwali. The High Court has banned crackers on public roads and in all 110 Silence Zones. @CMOMaharashtra @Dev_Fadnavis @mybmc @mpcb_official

Another Fire🔥
And Mumbai is facing water crisis.
Fire breaks out at Kamgar Krida Bhavan compound in Dadar, reportedly in an illegal godown used by mandap decorators.
Ironically, just FIVE days ago, BJP organised an event at the same venue attended by the @CMOMaharashtra
@mhlabourwelfare must immediately inspect the entire premises, identify all illegal storage facilities, ensure removal of fire hazards and make the area safe for the public.
Do not wait for another tragedy to act!

Ashish Shelar’s idea of beautifying Bandra, apparently, is spending public money on oversized, ornamental installations while much of the neighbourhood continues to struggle with broken footpaths, encroachments and basic civic infrastructure.
Bandra needs proper footpaths, better roads and functioning civic infrastructure. Not ugly vanity projects dressed up as beautification.
Who is asking for these projects, who is approving them, and who is being held accountable for how public money is spent?

🔷गोरेगाव-मुलुंड जोडरस्ता (GMLR) प्रकल्पाच्या टप्पा ३ (ब) अंतर्गत संजय गांधी राष्ट्रीय उद्यानाच्या (SGNP) खालून बांधण्यात येणाऱ्या दुहेरी भूमिगत बोगद्याच्या कामात महत्त्वपूर्ण टप्पा गाठण्यात यश आले आहे. या दुहेरी बोगद्यांपैकी पहिल्या बोगद्याचे खोदकाम करणाऱ्या ‘तुळशी’ या बोगदा खनन यंत्राद्वारे (Tunnel Boring Machine –TBM) आतापर्यंत २७० मीटर लांबीचे खोदकाम पूर्ण करण्यात आले आहे. तर दुसऱ्या बोगद्याच्या खोदकामासाठी सज्ज असलेल्या ‘विहार’ या दुसऱ्या बोगदा खनन यंत्राद्वारे शनिवार, दिनांक ७ नोव्हेंबर २०२६ पासून प्रत्यक्ष खोदकामास प्रारंभ करण्यात आला आहे. त्यामुळे या महत्त्वाकांक्षी प्रकल्पातील दोन्ही बोगद्यांच्या निर्मितीच्या कामाला आता गती प्राप्त झाली आहे.
🔷गोरेगाव - मुलुंड जोडरस्ता हा बृहन्मुंबई महानगरपालिका क्षेत्रातील पूर्व आणि पश्चिम उपनगरांना जोडणारा १२.२० किलोमीटर लांबीचा महत्त्वपूर्ण पायाभूत सुविधा प्रकल्प आहे. हा प्रकल्प चार टप्प्यांमध्ये राबविण्यात येत आहे. प्रकल्प टप्पा ३ (ब) अंतर्गत गोरेगाव (पूर्व) येथील दादासाहेब फाळके चित्रनगरी ते मुलुंड (पश्चिम) येथील अमर नगर दरम्यान संजय गांधी राष्ट्रीय उद्यानाच्या खाली अत्याधुनिक टनेल बोरिंग मशीन (TBM) तंत्रज्ञानाद्वारे ५.३४ किलोमीटर लांबीचे, प्रत्येकी तीन मार्गिकेचे दुहेरी बोगदे बांधण्यात येत आहेत.
🔷यापैकी पहिल्या बोगदा खणन सयंत्राचे नामकरण 'तुळशी' आणि दुसऱ्या बोगदा खणन सयंत्राचे नामकरण ‘विहार’ असे करण्यात आले आहे. संपूर्ण तांत्रिक प्रक्रिया व चाचण्या पूर्ण झाल्यानंतर दिनांक १७ ऑगस्ट २०२६ रोजी ‘तुळशी’ कार्यान्वित करण्यात आले आहे. त्यानंतर आतापर्यंत गोरेगावकडून मुलुंडच्या दिशेने २७० मीटरपेक्षा अधिक लांबीचे खोदकाम पूर्ण केले आहे.
🔷दुसऱ्या बोगद्याच्या खोदकामासाठी वापरण्यात येणाऱ्या ‘विहार’ या बोगदा खनन संयंत्राची स्थळ स्वीकृत चाचणी (Site Acceptance Test) नुकतीच यशस्वीरीत्या पूर्ण करण्यात आली आहे. त्यानंतर , शनिवार, ७ नोव्हेंबर २०२६ पासून दुसऱ्या बोगद्याच्या खोदकामास अधिकृतपणे प्रारंभ करण्यात आला आहे.
🔷‘विहार’ हे दुसरे बोगदा खनन संयंत्र ‘तुळशी’ प्रमाणेच अत्याधुनिक सिंगल शिल्ड अर्थ प्रेशर बॅलन्स (Single Shield Earth Pressure Balance – EPB) तंत्रज्ञानावर आधारित आहे. या संयंत्राच्या कटर हेडचा व्यास १४.४९ मीटर असून संपूर्ण संयंत्राची लांबी ८३ मीटर आहे. यामध्ये २२ मीटर लांबीचा शिल्ड भाग आणि तीन मजली रचनेचा ६१ मीटर लांबीचा बॅकअप गॅन्ट्री विभाग समाविष्ट आहे. अत्याधुनिक तंत्रज्ञानामुळे खोदकाम करताना बोगद्याच्या अग्रभागातील मातीचा दाब नियंत्रित ठेवता येतो. परिणामी, जमिनीची स्थिरता राखून सुरक्षित आणि नियोजनबद्ध पद्धतीने बोगद्याचे खोदकाम करणे शक्य होते.
🔷संपूर्ण प्रकल्प फेब्रुवारी २०२९ पर्यंत पूर्ण करण्याचे लक्ष्य निश्चित करण्यात आले आहे.

Vietnam has become a favourite new destination for Indian travellers. But if we turn their airports into picnic spots, spreading food and litter, we risk becoming very unpopular tourists. When will we learn to travel with civic sense? 😮

The BMC is leading Mumbai into a war against the environment. The ruling BJP is spearheading it. Neither can provide Mumbai with clean air.
Which is why, it is easier to polarise #DiaMirza's video, delete it. I write for @TheQuint about the sorry state of Mumbai in this new India, where even air pollution has been communalised.
