What happened
During the demolition of the controversial Hatkeshwar Bridge, the Ahmedabad Municipal Corporation (AMC) achieved a bureaucratic breakthrough by letting sandbags fall on pedestrians. Officials masterfully shifted the blame, stating the victims 'unlawfully entered' a restricted zone to conduct business. It is now understood that in Ahmedabad, gravity is a legal enforcement tool and sandbags are the final arbiters of urban zoning laws.
