Mumbai: Ahead of the BMC elections and on the occasion of Christmas, citizen activists stood peacefully outside Mannat, Bandra Bandstand — the residence of actor Shah Rukh Khan — with placards highlighting Mumbai’s worsening air quality and urging immediate action from the Maharashtra government.
"The citizen action called attention to rising air quality index (AQI) levels and the urgent need for strict enforcement against construction dust, waste burning, and polluting activities, said activist Furkan Shaikh said standing with the placards. "This Christmas, while Mumbai celebrates, the city is struggling to breathe. Clean air is not a luxury or a festival promise — it is a fundamental right, and the government must act now.”
