Hindustan Times  

Mumbai witnessed 1,496 road accidents between January and June this year — the highest among 10 cities and 33 districts in Maharashtra — according to data from the state government. However, the data also revealed that road accidents, injuries and deaths in Mumbai saw a decrease as compared to the same period last year. Data also revealed that Maharashtra witnessed 17,848 road accidents between January and June 2019, in which 6,844 people were killed and 15,697 others injured — all marginal dips from the same period last year. “Continuous monitoring measures are in place and district road safety committees are carrying out quarterly reviews of accident mitigation measures,” said JB Patil, who heads the road safety cell.
