HC directs Mumbai authorities to fill potholes

The Bombay High Court today directed authorities in Mumbai to fill potholes on the city's roads by August 30.

The direction, passed by a bench comprising Justices R M Lodha and S A Bobde, came in response to a public interest litigation (PIL) that complained about the bad condition of Mumbai's roads.

The court directed various authorities in the city responsible for the upkeep of roads to fill potholes in areas under their respective jurisdiction.
