Saraswatibai Bishwambharlal Charity Trust — Public nuisance - garbage allowed to rot in lift lobby

Address:

Mumbai City, Maharashtra, 400026

Since about 6:30 p.m. a bag has been lying in the lift lobby of second floor of `C' Wing of Maheshwari Mansion. I called the Police Control Room about an hour ago to complain about the unattended bag in the lift lobby. The Police Officers of Malabar Hill Police Station visited the site and questioned the residents of flat 18 on second floor in `C' Wing. Sailesh Merchant residing in flat 18 told the Police Officer that the bag belongs to them and is their garbage and also that it will remain there till it is picked along with their garbage the next morning. Garbage is cleared only once a day around 8 a.m. every morning by an employee of Saraswatibai Bishwambharlal Charity Trust. There are rats in the building and they are allowed to feed on the garbage . So the bag remains in the lift lobby even now. Public nuisance is being encouraged in the building by Saraswatibai Bishwambharlal Charity Trust. The Police Officer of Malabar Hill Police Station told me on the phone that it is the work of the building Trust which is Saraswatibai Bishwambharlal Charity Trust to keep the building premises clean.
