Indian Express·3h ago·Neutral
What Happened
Mumbai's MMRDA reversed its termination threat against DB Hill–LBG consortium, Metro Line 4's general consultant, weeks after a February 14 parapet wall collapse in Mulund killed one person and injured three others. Despite imposing a Rs 1 crore fine and declaring zero tolerance, the authority quietly retained the consortium responsible for monitoring construction and safety across multiple metro corridors.
