Discover the latest buzz from Mumbai with gang arrests, ATS raids, and toll-free promises for the coastal road!

In recent Mumbai news, a gang of six members, including a 77-year-old, was apprehended at Ellora Guest House in Borivali, with firearms, allegedly planning a major dacoity. The Maharashtra Anti-Terrorism Squad (ATS) conducted a raid in Borivali, leading to the arrest of six individuals suspected of planning a robbery, seizing country-made weapons and ammunition. Meanwhile, Chief Minister Eknath Shinde announced the Mumbai coastal road would be toll-free, with the first phase between Worli and Marine Drive set to open by May.

Moreover, the Mumbai ATS interception of individuals from Delhi and UP, plotting a robbery with country-made weapons, highlights the city's vigilance against criminal activities. In transportation news, the addition of 10 new electric AC buses to Mumbai's fleet, though commendable, underscores the city's challenges in maintaining an adequate public transport system. Additionally, the delay in setting up shared auto stands outside metro stations due to concerns of traffic congestion reveals the ongoing urban planning dilemmas faced by authorities.

As air pollution remains a concern in major Indian cities, Mumbai's struggle to meet PM 2.5 limits highlights the environmental challenges the city grapples with. The promise of a toll-free coastal road by CM Shinde not only offers relief to commuters but also signifies a significant infrastructure development milestone in Mumbai.

The Mumbai coastal road project, named after Chhatrapati Sambaji Maharaj, aims to enhance connectivity and ease traffic congestion, reflecting the city's continuous efforts towards infrastructure improvement. The ATS raids and gang arrests underscore the importance of law enforcement's proactive measures in maintaining public safety amidst evolving criminal activities in urban areas.
