In a related enforcement drive, the BMC conducted a major anti-encroachment operation on February 20–21, 2026, in nearby areas such as Mahavir Nagar Kandivali and Mathuradas Road Kandivali. During the drive, officials reportedly removed more than 65 illegal structures and unauthorized stalls to clear blocked footpaths and improve pedestrian movement.Despite these actions, many locals have expressed concerns about what they describe as selective enforcement of civic rules. Residents claim that illegal parking by taxis, trucks, and auto-rickshaws in the Lokhandwala area often goes unchecked.

Some locals argue that vehicle towing and strict enforcement are carried out more aggressively in nearby areas like Thakur Village, while similar violations in Lokhandwala continue without action.The combination of late-night events, traffic congestion, and illegal parking has led some residents to describe the situation as increasingly chaotic. Many are urging authorities to ensure equal enforcement of rules, control noise pollution, and improve traffic management in the locality.

Residents hope that stronger monitoring and timely civic action will help restore peace and order in the busy residential neighborhood of Kandivali East.
