On May 7, a portion of the perimeter wall of approximately 12-15 feet of the Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj International Airport (CSMIA) collapsed due to the ongoing construction and maintenance work on the city side adjoining the wall. 

CSMIA Airside Security and Central Industrial Security Force (CISF), who were immediately informed of this, deployed additional guards at the location, and safety barricades were quickly installed to cordon off the affected area and secure the perimeter. 

There was no disruption to any airport operations or services. Also, no injuries or casualties were reported, CSMIA said in a press release.  

CSMIA added that it continues to maintain the highest standards of safety and security and is taking all necessary steps to investigate the incident.
