Mumbai Metro construction slab falls near school van; contractors face ₹12.5 crore in fines
A concrete slab segment detached from the under-construction Mumbai Metro Line 9 in Mira-Bhayandar. A school van passing by narrowly avoided a major accident, though falling debris caused its tyres to burst. In response to the safety lapse, the MMRDA has levied a ₹10 crore fine on the project contractor, a ₹1.5 crore penalty on the architectural finishing firm, and a ₹1 crore fine on the general consultant.
