Mumbai Court Slams BMC: "Tom and Jerry" Encroachment, "Sanchalay" for Toilet

  • Mumbai High Court severely reprimanded BMC over encroachment issues and misnaming 'shauchalay' as 'sanchalay'.
  • Justice Ghuge criticized BMC for creating its own problems and allowing encroachments to persist, likening it to a "Tom and Jerry" chase.
  • The court expressed displeasure over extensive encroachment on a 90-foot-wide road in Hiranandani area, affecting a Powai school's petition.
  • Judges questioned why mobile toilets, meant for slum dwellers, were stationary and contributing to encroachment.
  • Concerns were also raised about encroachment on P D'Mello Road, near the High Court, reducing its width significantly.
