A garden at Azad Nagar in Andheri West is undergoing a welcome facelift. It has broken benches with rods poking out from concrete. The walkway has a couple of loose tiles, which could cause walkers to trip. The exercise equipment is broken and some is missing entirely. There is also a central light that is not working. The toilet, with no water and an unbearable stench, is unusable.
Now work has finally started in the space. Complaints were ignored, but the ball got rolling after the press began asking why repairs and maintenance were lacking. We need to have officials making site visits to different gardens in their wards regularly so that these spaces are safe and usable at the very least.
