Dombivli flyover fiasco: Built in 7 years, shut down in hours

This Get Real India report focusses on the Palava flyover in Dombivli, Maharashtra, a project by the MSRDC that turned into a public hazard. After seven years in the making, the flyover was shut down for safety concerns on the day of its inauguration on July 4, 2025, only to develop severe potholes within weeks, prompting a complete resurfacing by September. This debacle has raised serious questions about the quality of public infrastructure, contractor accountability, and the role of the Maharashtra State Road Development Corporation in ensuring commuter safety.
