Mumbai Residents Raise Late-Night Noise and Traffic Concerns

People from several Mumbai neighbourhoods met in Khar to talk about problems near their homes.

They said loud music and late-night gatherings can make it hard to sleep.

They also described crowded roads, honking and cars blocking entrances.

The residents had planned to walk together, but permission for the walk was not given.

Instead, they stayed at the housing society and discussed the issues.

A senior police officer came to hear their concerns.

Residents said he would work toward a group for coordination and a meeting with civic and traffic officials.

They said they want businesses to keep operating while residents can also rest and reach their homes safely.
