Over Low-Quality Water Supply Residents of Vashi Express Dissatisfaction

Vashi Residents Complain Over Poor Quality Of Water Supply.
The Water supply
Certain areas of the city have been receiving polluted water for the past ten days, despite the fact that Navi Mumbai residents are complaining about an inadequate water supply. They expressed dissatisfaction with the water they were receiving, claiming it was contaminated with visible worms.
For the previous three days, contaminated water has been provided to us. A Sector 10, Vashi homeowner stated, “We noticed the water supply for a few days and then brought up the issue with the NMMC water supply department.”
We assumed that the clogs in our above water tanks must have caused contamination of the water. We thus used sodium hypochlorite to clean the water tanks, but even after that, we continue to receive contaminated water, the resident continued. After a few more days of observation, the locals notified the NMMC water department, who responded quickly and saw that the area was receiving water. The homeowner stated, “We hope an early redress of the same and the civic authorities are looking into the issue.”
The households were receiving polluted water because of dirty overhead tanks, but now they are receiving safe water, according to a representative from NMMC’s water department who was called. “We are implementing all essential measures to guarantee that the residents receive clean drinking water,” the representative continued.

Agri Community Calls Special Meeting to Demand Navi Mumbai Airport Be Named After D.B. Patil

The Agri community, along with like-minded associations, has convened a special meeting to reinforce their demand for naming the upcoming Navi Mumbai International Airport after social activist D.B. Patil.
The meeting, organized by the All Party Action Committee and Akhil Agri Samaj Parishad, will be held at 11 a.m. on Saturday at the Navi Mumbai Sports Association.
“This meeting aims to reiterate the long-standing demand of the local residents. D.B. Patil was a revered leader who fought for farmers’ rights, particularly during the government’s land acquisitions in the 1970s,” said an official.
The demand to name the airport after D.B. Patil has received widespread support. A resolution proposing the name D.B. Patil International Airport was previously passed and submitted to the Union government. While the Centre has approved the proposal, a formal notification is still awaited.
The meeting will focus on strategies to expedite the official announcement and ensure that the resolution is implemented without further delay.
The Agri community and supporting organizations remain firm in their stance, emphasizing that the airport should honor the legacy of a leader who championed the cause of local farmers.

Navi Mumbai Director Duped of ₹60 Lakh in WhatsApp DP Fraud

A 52-year-old director of a Thane-based private company lost Rs60 lakh to a fraudster who impersonated another director by using his photograph as a WhatsApp display picture (DP).
According to the police, the complainant, a Navi Mumbai resident, is one of the three directors of the company. On February 5, he received a WhatsApp message from an unknown number, with the sender claiming to be another director, who was in Dubai, and stating that it was his new number.
The next day, the fraudster inquired about the company’s account balance. Believing he was communicating with his colleague—whose photo appeared as the WhatsApp DP—the complainant provided the details. The fraudster then requested an urgent transfer of Rs60 lakh, citing funding needs for a project.
Without suspecting foul play, the complainant instructed the company’s accountant to transfer the amount to the account provided by the fraudster. However, after the transaction, the real director in Dubai contacted him, inquiring about the large sum. Shocked, the complainant realized he had been duped through WhatsApp DP fraud.
The police have registered a case and are investigating the matter. Officials have warned the public to verify fund transfer requests and avoid relying solely on WhatsApp display pictures for identity confirmation.
