As Mumbai’s Chandivali reels under severe waterlogging and infrastructure failure following heavy monsoon showers, civic authorities are facing public fury. Local MLA and BMC officials have been accused of shirking responsibility while residents suffer due to blocked drains, overflowing sewers, and inaccessible roads.

Citizens complain that despite repeated alerts and complaints, no pre-monsoon preparedness was seen on the ground. Meanwhile, BMC officials and political representatives are reportedly passing the blame onto each other. The lack of coordination and accountability has turned Chandivali into a cautionary tale of urban neglect.
