From the latest AC rake of Mumbai, used for less than 1 month.
FRP panels cracked, paint sprayed on 1 of the panels while carelessly painting something else, crudely cut panels. Shoddily pasted yellow & red sticker. And ICF aspires to build metro rakes (1/n)
Panels above door are flimsy and have huge panel gaps.
The original locks don't last long, and local workshop adds the fasteners pretty soon (2/n)
Line 2B(DN Nagar - Mandale)
delayed due to slow work by contractors. Further delay added in retendering
Line 2A (Dahisar - DN Nagar)
Rake trials on in some part. Station works going on slowly. Full opening not likely before end of 2022 1/n
Line 3 (Colaba - SEEPZ)
Do I need to say anything? Just 1 word, carshed.
Other works also not as fast as they used to be earlier 2/n
