The safety of schoolchildren is compromised due to the hazardous condition of gutters and construction of a BMC water-pumping shed near Don Bosco High School in Borivli West, said a report in this paper. Parents and residents have expressed concern about the potential dangers posed by these infrastructural issues.
Gutters outside Borivli West Metro station on Link Road’s southbound stretch just outside the compound of Don Bosco High School are in a dilapidated state.
