On Wednesday, the Bombay High Court asked the Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation (BMC) to consider covering all manholes in Mumbai with protective grills to prevent accidents.
A division bench of acting Chief Justice Nitin Jamdar and Sandeep Marne noted that in 2018 the Bombay HC had directed the civic body that some mechanism be developed to ensure that manholes on city roads and pavements are not left open. The court had then also suggested that preventive grills be installed in manholes.
