The collapse of an illegal hoarding in Mumbai has raised questions about the possibility of similar incident in Telangana’s urban areas where unipoles and hoardings are aplenty.
The 12x120 feet hoarding in Mumbai’s Ghatkopar area crushed 16 persons to death in its collapse due to high velocity winds and thunderstorm. A video clip of the collapse widely shared in the social media is causing jitters among the civic officials.
The policy of advertisement hoardings and display boards is constantly on the shift in Telangana, and also not uniform across the cities.
