Entitled folks of Matunga. Roads are wide enough to park cars, yet footpaths are chosen because they know @MTPHereToHelp won’t act. Zero fear of law, zero regard for pedestrians. Location: Lady Jehangir Road

This is the modern redeveloped Amrit Bharat Sandhurst Road station. They forgot how to install proper coach indicators, so the First Class coach marking is literally a ₹100 sticker slapped on a wall. Even the station name boards are just stickers on panels. What a scam! 🚆🤦♂️
One station, 2 different designs of redevelopment!! Why isn't there uniformity in the design?! Loc- harbour line Sandhurst road stn @Central_Railway @GM_CRly

Ran from Sion to Navy Nagar via Worli. This dust on my jersey is the proof + the layer on my exposed skin. This is what running outdoors in Mumbai looks like today. Air, roads, construction everything is failing us. Please act, @mybmc. This isn’t the उज्वल भविष्य i was promised!

I stand corrected on my predictions!! 5 years down the line we will have 20 lane roads btwn Mumbai pune but no additional rail or RRTS btwn 2 cities!! Sadly the reality is that we are so focused on roads, yet our road quality is the worst!! Can't even excel in that!!
Second Mumbai-Pune Expressway soon. Parallel to the current one. Good decision. Hope it gets complete during Nitin Gadkari tenure & we review the quality. It will prove what I’m now convinced of: The current expressway was world-class not due to him but the IAS officer RC Sinha

Travelled on Metro Line 1 in “non-peak” hours. Turns out there are none Metro was packed, most passengers alighted at WEH & Andheri. Clear proof of poor east-west mass transit Thane–Borivali tunnel: no metro. GMLR: no metro JVLR metro: still stuck @MMRDAOfficial @DrSanMukherjee

This is how pedestrians are treated outside Bombay High Court. Cars fully block the road and footpath entry, and BMC’s railings make it even worse. If even the guardians of law don’t respect public space, what chance do pedestrians have? Loc-opp Bombay High court. @MTPHereToHelp

Used my NCMC card on a BEST bus and got charged 11 paise extra. For what exactly? If cash & Chalo tickets cost the same, why penalise NCMC users - the very people you want to shift to seamless mobility? @myBESTBus @CMOMaharashtra

A city that gets 2000mm rain still wants new dams. We wouldn’t need a single new dam if every building did rainwater harvesting. But then… how will thousands of crores be spent & earned? 😉 Mumbai’s water crisis isn’t natural - it’s manufactured. @pervinsanghvi
Once commissioned, Gargai will add 440 million litres per day (MLD) to Mumbai’s water supply—making it the city’s first new reservoir since Middle Vaitarna became operational in 2014. The BMC is eyeing a 2029 completion, a year that coincides with the next Lok Sabha and Assembly

Surat station is under redevelopment, but only 2 FoBs for 3 platforms = daily stampede like crowding. @drmbct please install temporary Army-style modular FoBs that can be dismantled later. Passenger safety can’t wait for construction timelines!! @rajtoday @WesternRly @TOISurat

Another gem!! Distance between Andheri and bandra is 7kms. Train takes 33mins @runkarthikrun has a faster pace in his runs than my train!!! This is the 80% punctuality scandal!! @AshwiniVaishnaw @rajtoday

#Punctuality redefined!! Train 12052 Madgaon - CSMT Janshatabdi Express ⏱️ Dadar dep: 23:10 | CSMT arr: 23:59 - 49 mins for just 9 km! On 29.10.25, train reached Dadar 39 mins late but CSMT only 6 mins late. Smart trick - keeps the train “punctual” on paper!

The beginning of Pratiksha Nagar Road has been closed for traffic (except 2-wheelers) but @mybmc, why are huge pipes dumped on the footpath? Now pedestrians & bikers are forced to share the same road - a daily risk that could’ve been easily avoided. 🚶♂️🏍️⚠️
@mybmcWardFN Sewerage Dept & @MTPHereToHelp please coordinate and completely close pratiksha nagar road for 2-wheelers. This is how we walk in Pratiksha Nagar, the same city that’s building the ₹13,000 crore Coastal Road! 🤡 Infra bros, come take a stroll here, Habibi!

#Belagavi’s “Amrit Bharat” stn has 3 platforms but just 1 FoB at the far end of a 22-coach platform. So every time a train comes on Pl 2/3, kids, adults, seniors just cross the tracks Sad that the FoB is still under construction when that should’ve been the first thing finished

Explored Bandra during my morning run, what a shocker! 1.37 km of Nargis Dutt Rd & Pali Mala Rd - cars parked on both sides, not a single cm of footpath. The elites ensure cars get free parking, but househelps don’t even get the dignity to walk. Guess the rich here never #walk

National Clean Air Programme launched in 2019 for 131 cities. Budget ₹9650 Cr. Target: 20-30% PM reduction by 2024 Reality? India now has 70 of the world's 100 most polluted cities Air got worse, money got spent. No audit. No accountability. Just contracts, tenders & photo-ops
