With the rains in Mumbai, the problem of waterlogging has started coming to the fore. Common people are facing problems due to water logging.
In such a situation, a video of Shiv Sena MLA from Chandivali Dilip Lande is going viral in which he forcibly makes a person sit in the mud of the drain and some people throw garbage on him.
This video of BMC contractor bathing by pouring dirty water and garbage from the drain is from Chandivali area of Mumbai. Shiv Sena MLA Dilip Lande taught the contractor a lesson in this way for not doing the drain cleaning work on time.
Lande says that for 15 days, requests were being made from the contractor for cleaning the drains, but due to not working on time, they had to be taught a lesson in Shiv Sena style.
BMC had claimed 104% completion of drain cleaning work in Mumbai before the monsoon rains. While the opposition has been continuously raising questions about cleaning the drain. In such a situation, the opposition has termed the Shiv Sena MLA’s attempt to shift the responsibility of cleaning the drain on the contractor as a stunt.
On the other hand, when Mayor Kishori Pednekar was asked a question on the MLA Dilip Lande case, instead of giving a direct answer, the matter was turned towards the Chief Minister.
In such a situation, the question is also, who gave the right to humiliate a contractor publicly in this way, if the contractor did not do the work on time, then he could have been blacklisted and penalty could also be imposed.
Now it will be important in such a situation whether the police takes action on this and whether the Maharashtra administration seeks an answer from the MLA for this behavior.
