Just days after a 47-year-old auto driver lost his life in Bandra East due to potholes on the city roads, a senior official of the Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation (BMC) on Monday said that there are no potholes in Mumbai.

The bizarre statement came from the BMC's standing committee chairman, Yashwant Jadhav, who said that he hasn't seen any potholes in the metropolitan.

His statement comes after the municipal body reportedly received 17,200 complaints on potholes.
