To
The People of India,
Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation @mybmc
Respected Chief Minister of Maharashtra, Shri Devendra Fadnavis @Dev_Fadnavis
Hon. Prime Minister of India, Shri Narendra Modi @narendramodi

I am not an activist. I am not here to fight or tear anyone down. I am writing to you as a citizen of our country, a fellow Indian, with a basic yet fundamental right—the right to clean air.

Every day, I see people around me in Mumbai getting sicker. I feel it in my own body too. The air we breathe is no longer just air—it is harming our lungs, our hearts, and our future. We cannot ignore this any longer.

Today, I have a humble yet urgent plea to our Respected Chief Minister, our Honorable Prime Minister, and the Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation. Please reconsider the allocation of funds for something the city does not need right now.

Mumbai does not need a giant Ferris wheel. What we need—what we desperately need—is clean air.

I appeal to every citizen of India, to parents, educators, and school principals. You know absenteeism in schools is rising. You see children struggling with breathing issues, missing out on their education and their childhood. I appeal to doctors, who witness the growing number of patients with respiratory illnesses. Pediatricians, you know how many young children are suffering from asthma and lung infections caused by polluted air.

To personal trainers, athletes, and fitness enthusiasts—I ask you to pause and reflect. We encourage people to exercise, to run, to train for a healthier life. But what happens when they do this in toxic air? Are we truly helping them, or are we unknowingly harming them?

This is also a heartfelt appeal to nutritionists, doctors, wellness experts, and health influencers. You know that food and medicine alone cannot fix this. No superfood, no supplement, no treatment can undo the damage that breathing polluted air does to our bodies every single day.

And to celebrities, athletes, and people with influence—your voice matters. You have the power to bring attention to this crisis. Let us use our platforms not just for endorsements but for a cause that impacts every single Indian. Let us urge our leaders to focus on what we truly need as human beings.

We cannot afford to be mere bystanders anymore. This is not resilience. This is a slow surrender.

We have children and aging parents struggling to breathe. We have newborns taking their first breaths of air that should never enter fragile lungs. The future of our health does not depend on just more medicine, more nutrition, or more meditation. It depends on the basics—the right to clean air, clean water, and clean food.

I do not claim to have all the answers. But I do know this—the money allocated for a Ferris wheel could be used to clean the air in our city.

This is not about fighting. This is about uniting. Hatred and anger will not solve this crisis, but our collective voice, our unwavering plea for change, will.

To every parent watching their child suffer, to every citizen who wakes up to a smog-filled skyline—speak up. Our voice matters.

During the COVID-19 pandemic when the nation rallied for health and wellness, Hon. Prime Minister, your amazing Fit India Movement @FitIndiaOff nominated me as the Wellness and Lifestyle Champion. Today, I carry that responsibility forward. My humble plea is that we need clean air, not just for fitness, but for a healthier, stronger, and cleaner India.

Let us not wait for another crisis to act. We are with you. Let's act together now.

With humility, respect, urgency, and hope,
Luke Coutinho

Been in Mumbai for two decades but don’t remember roads being this bad ever. Gullies, main roads, highways, Kandivali to Juhu to Bandra to town - all dug up without any end in sight.

We’re used to living in chaos but current state of pollution and dysfunction should be utterly shameful for one of the richest municipalities in India.

Fee on garbage collection? Am I reading this correctly? Is this a joke?

[Aaditya Thackeray @AUThackeray]

Why should Mumbaikars fund Adani Group’s Dharavi land grab?

• Last week BJP run state government told @mybmc to spend (Mumbai’s tax money) on cleaning Deonar dumping ground.
It will cost BMC approximately ₹3000 crores.

The Deonar land already has been grabbed by the Adani Group, against the wishes of the BMC.

• Yesterday, in the BMC budget, to fund this clean up secretly, the BMC has proposed a fee on every home across Mumbai to collect garbage.

Why should Mumbaikars fund this land grab forcefully? Will Mumbaikars get free homes in Dharavi as against this contribution?

[Aaditya Thackeray @AUThackeray]

Wondering why Mumbai is all dug up?

It is because of the road scam of the BJP supported Shinde regime!

The @mybmc commissioner exposed the lies of the illegal CM eknath shinde who said Mumbai will be pothole free in 2 years.
The presented budget report says only 26% road works have been completed, a number which in reality is much lesser!

I had exposed this in 2023 and 2024, and I say it again- the bjp installed shinde regime looted Mumbai, especially through the road scam of 2023 and 2024.

The city has been left in shambles by Shinde’s contractors, dug up at insanely high cost, now stuck because of bad on ground planning.
Only plan was to take out money from Mumbai.

Footpaths in Mumbai are for everyone except pedestrians.

Nashik-Mumbai highway still remains the worst to travel. I thought atleast till elections we will have the privilege of traffic free, pothole free roads. But no, sadly the condition is same as it is all the year round (roads are always getting repaired 🤣) #Mumbai #Nashik

[pranjal picha @PichaPranjal]

@AUThackeray We have not just been looted but we have been unsafe too. Murders, open firings, rapes, mob lynching.. why is nobody talking about this? What will a person do with toll free, pot-hole free, yojna-full (full of yojna’s) Mumbai if he/she is just unsafe?

[pranjal picha @PichaPranjal]

@WeAreNashik @nashikpolice @nashik_feed So even the police is looting us along with these taxi drivers

[pranjal picha @PichaPranjal]

A strict action should be taken against these Nsk-Kasara-Nsk taxi drivers. Despite of taking 150-200rs per passenger, they don’t follow any rules. Forcefully filling in 10 passengers in ECO & 8 in Ominee. Harassing people if questioned.

This is our Dadar Station. I don’t remember the last I’ve seen it all clean.
