NMMT buses is set to provide free travel for senior citizens over 65 years of age

Senior residents may now travel with ease and without difficulty thanks to the Navi Mumbai Municipal Transport (NMMT), a public transportation initiative of the Navi Mumbai Municipal Corporation (NMMC), which was established shortly after the Maharashtra State Road Transport Corporation (MSRTC). As a result, the project is now the first civic transportation organization to offer free transportation to anyone over 65.

“We have lowered the age limit and made travel free for those above 65 years of age, taking a step further to the MSRTC’s decision to make travel free for the people above 75 years of age,” a senior NMMT official stated, declining to be identified.

He continued by saying that by making this choice, NMMT has made history by becoming the first civic transportation organization in the state to give elderly residents this benefit. To be eligible for the benefit, applicants will just need to show proof of their age and residency in the NMMC region. This is a minor step toward our goal of empowering elders by making travel inside NMMT boundaries trouble-free for them, the official continued.

Every day, NMMT transports around 1.80 lakh passengers by operating 567 buses over 74 routes. In addition to functioning under the jurisdiction of NMMC, the NMMT offers its services to neighboring cities like Thane, Mumbai, Kalyan, Dombivli, Uran, Khopoli, and so on. Previously, NMMT prohibited the use of cell phones on its buses in an effort to quiet passengers after receiving many complaints from them. The choice was made to boost productivity and provide travelers with high-quality travel.

Naresh Mhaske’s election campaign kick-starts.

The Campaign

With the launch of Naresh Mhaske’s campaign in many Navi Mumbai wards, the Mahayuti candidate, electoral fever is spreading throughout the city. Leading the charge alongside him was Navi Mumbai’s BJP District President, Sandeep Naik, who arranged campaign gatherings in the area’s most important wards, Karave, Darave, Seawoods, and Nerul.

In front of an enthusiastic assembly of BJP workers and office bearers, the message was crystal clear: the electorate will support the Modi administration once more. With high hopes, the focus is on winning every seat to open the door for Narendra Modi to serve a third term as prime minister.

Naresh Mhaske enthralled the masses at these pivotal events, calling on them to support Modi’s leadership and deliver landslide victory with overwhelming mandates. Mhaske emphasised the amazing relief efforts undertaken by the BJP amid emergencies such as the COVID-19 epidemic while highlighting the party’s persistent dedication to serving the people.

It was also remarked that MLA Ganesh Naik, who made an astounding 77 trips to the municipal offices during the epidemic, showed strong leadership. In addition, the administration’s prompt actions to guarantee the security of Navi Mumbai residents were applauded, in addition to the city’s recognition as a hygienic, livable, and water-rich city.

When one considered the advancements in development made during the last ten years under Modi’s direction, the feeling was that all facets of society had benefited. The Mahayuti alliance is expected to win big in Navi Mumbai thanks to the unwavering efforts of BJP members who have been strengthening the party’s organizational base since 2019.

The allied Shiv Sena in Mahayuti has been handed the Thane Lok Sabha seat in a calculated move. District President Naik mobilized support by comparing Naresh Mhaske to MLA Ganesh Naik and Narendra Modi, and asking everyone to focus their energies on making sure he wins.

The disposal of debris at the iconic jewels of Navi Mumbai has outraged environmentalists.

The Issue

Environmentalists are outraged by the continued dumping of rubbish at Navi Mumbai’s famed Jewel. Concerns have been raised over the potential environmental impact of the dumping, which was purportedly done by a contractor employed by the Navi Mumbai Municipal Corporation (NMMC), on the waterbody’s rehabilitation initiatives.

The leader of the Environment Life Foundation and frequent visitor to the region, Dharmesh Barai, stressed the need to exercise prudence while doing the rejuvenation work. He voiced concerns about the interconnecting holding ponds and emphasized how important they are to preserving the mangrove environment in the area. Barai asked contractors and city engineers to give environmental protection top priority during desilting.

Founder of the group Save Navi Mumbai Environment, Sunil Agrawal expressed disapproval of the ongoing dumping of rubbish and warned of the negative impact on the lake’s capacity to contain water. Despite being an intertidal water body, Agarwal questioned why the Jewel of Navi Mumbai was being treated like a holding pond. He expressed worries about how restoration efforts will affect migratory birds’ habitat, especially flamingos, whose population has significantly increased recently.

Agarwal highlighted the need of preserving animal habitats in the face of development initiatives by citing the recent deaths of 13 flamingos at DPS Lake as a result of habitat degradation.
