Ghatkopar reminder: Thane hoarding collapse injures three amid new rules

Quick Summary:

The new billboard regulations in Mumbai, prompted by these incidents, recommend obtaining permissions from the BMC's Building Proposal Department instead of just the Civic License Department.

The civic body plans to introduce a dedicated policy for digital advertising, focusing on structural safety and durability.

The hoarding, measuring 120x120 feet, had been installed by Ego Media and significantly exceeded the BMC’s permitted size of 40x40 feet.
