We love you for your courage
Thanks for saving one more
One user appreciated the police's act, but also called out the BMC wishing if the nullah could have been closed by the authorities.
Appreciate the Help- however, this help wouldn’t be needed if @mybmc had kept less “pot holes/Man holes” or open “Nallah” in the 1st Place. No one would need such help.
