What happened

Some supportReported by 1 outlet

The Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation (BMC) sent a notice to Mumbai Airport authorities ordering the immediate disconnection of the water supply line connected to a mosque adjoining Terminal 2. This action was prompted by BJP leader Kirit Somaiya, who alleged that the mosque's water connection was illegal and amounted to water theft. The BMC stated that the water was being supplied via a 15 mm diameter pipe but was not recorded in the office files.

Why it matters

Some supportBrind's analysis of the reports

The BMC urged the airport authorities to either approve the water connection or disconnect it entirely within seven days. Failure to comply with the BMC's directions could lead to the corporation initiating actions deemed appropriate under the Municipal Corporation Act. The matter arose from Somaiya's claims of fraudulent land transfers involving AAI land and a structure described as a mosque.
