Mumbai
City of dreams. Economic capital. Movie Magic. Marine Drive, Gateway of India, Hotel Taj, Dombivili, Mulund, Bandra. Mount Mary for those who have faith in the almighty. The UNDERWORLD. The Mumbai nightlife. The city that lives by its train timings. Dharavi, Vashi, Dadar, Colaba, Bal Thackrey, bomb blasts, Prithvi Theatre, Bhel puri, neon lights, Ganesh Chathurti. Sachin’s Ferrari. What do you think of the traffic though?

Angry 70% completed, kurla east west light vehicular subway, will now be pedestrain subway

Hi friends,

Investigation from sources reviles shocking information that Kurla
east west light vehicular traffic subway 70% completed project, will
now be replaced by pedestrian subway.

Already a pedestrian foot over bridge exist like is exist at all
railway stations and vehicular traffic subway or bridge was a 60
year old demand.

1. Things r fishy and non transparent with top officials at all
levels and departments, refusing to comment and maintain the secrecy
of the VJTI report. Project work had been stopped for more than a
year now.
2. Why VJTI was referred to give report after 70% work being
completed and not before the commencement of the project.
3. In today's technological world, r things so difficult to
build a subway even on land when world can build under ground
tunnels below the sea. And mind u, this subway is build with the
present latest pre-build capsule push technology, and train traffic
on busy central way line was not stopped even for a minute during
it's working hours. Railways have done excellent job and completed
70% of their part of the job.
4. Is this job is hanging incomplete with deviation in original
plan, due to political interference and motives or due to
bureaucratic inefficiency?
5. As per news paper reports published in Hindustan times and
Indian express, Shri Manohar joshi ex- MP of the area had promised
that he will call a meeting with Mayor, to speed up the process. As
per newspaper report, VJTI was appointed for giving it's report on
project even after 70% of the project was already completed
(Railways completed their part of the project.), but when officials
of VJTI were contacted, they refused to be involved in any such
project and straight away refused that VJTI ever get involved in any
such reports giving process for subways etc.
6. As per newspaper reports, it was accepted by Manohar Joshi
as well as BMC officials that project work which has been stopped
for last 1 year and will resume after VJTI report comes on technical
issues of the project, and this report is expect after 4 months of
monsoon, In this era of transparency, why this report is kept
hidden. VJTI straight away refuses to have knowledge of any such
report being prepared by them and this was expressed with an
uncooperative attitude and rude behavior.
7. Sources reviled that this subway project would now be
converted into A PEDESTIAN SUBWAY and not a light vehicular traffic
subway as originally designed. Already people r using foot overhead
bridge for this purpose and such a under ground subway for
pedestrian is neither required nor of any especial use.

People of this country r taken for granted politicians and
bureaucrats and public money is used in whichever way required to
achieve personal goals, with out being accountable to anyone in
anyway. We need to force authorities to revert back to the original
plans of vehicular traffic subway, which seem to have been given up
for some unknown, unprecedented reason why we r showing inefficiency
to complete a 70% completed and money spend, simple tunnel build by
latest technology of pushing capsules which is suppose to give a
water proof tunnel.

Above mention questions needs to be answered. We need to follow up
this issue and need of the hour is to immediately get organized and
start democratic peaceful agitation for fooling the faith and
confidence of people in our politicians and administration..

Regards,

Jitendra gupta
