Nagpur Flyover Beam Through Balcony Sparks Controversy
A flyover is being built in Nagpur, India.
One of its beams is going through a family's balcony.
The government knew the balcony extended too far and sent a notice.
The construction continued anyway.
Now, the local government is investigating and the family says they were aware and cooperative.
People online are joking about it.
A flyover beam was constructed through a residential balcony in Nagpur.
NHAI notified NMC about potential encroachment nearly a year prior.
NMC has issued a 15-day notice to investigate the home's legality.
The family says they were informed about the beam placement.
Social media users suggest the family should charge a toll.
