A witty response to the Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation’s (BMC) tweet has left social media users laughing after a user posted a photo of one of the city’s dug-up roads.
The image was paired with a playful caption: “Every bylane in Mumbai looks like this now. Are they searching for oil? Gold? Ethereum?
What appeared to be a typical complaint about the city’s ongoing roadwork took a humorous turn when BMC responded with a formal request: “Please share the exact location to resolve this issue.” The real fun began when one user posted a map of Mumbai, marking the entire city, and simply replied: “Here.”

The reply reflected the growing frustration of residents tired of the constant digging in their neighborhoods, a sentiment that many social media users quickly highlighted in the comments section.
One user humorously commented, “No, they won’t stop until they strike oil under Mumbai. Amtanirbhar in oil.” Another added, “Just go out and see all the lanes, it’s like this throughout the city.” Yet another user remarked, “It’s all over the city.”

It appears that Mumbai’s pothole-filled streets and ongoing construction are not just a local issue, but a city-wide phenomenon. Based on the reactions on social media, residents are clearly hoping for more progress and less digging.
