Security Concerns and Political Reactions

The incident has raised questions about the effectiveness of the security at the upscale building, home to high-profile residents. Criticism has also been directed at the Maharashtra government, with opposition leaders questioning the state of law and order in Mumbai.

The case has also garnered reactions from leaders like Arvind Kejriwal and Mamata Banerjee, both calling for a deeper review of public safety measures in the state.
