We also discussed improvements to HBT clinics, civic medical services, and the condition of cemeteries." He highlighted the need for increased medical facilities and additional HBT clinics across the city.
A former corporator present at the meeting noted, "This meeting was essential as there have been no corporators in Mumbai for the past 2.5 years. We used this opportunity to address delays in public toilet repairs, park beautification, and the construction of new hospitals."
