The stalemate over the Metro-3 car shed in Mumbai is continuing with the Centre recently urging the Maharashtra government to keep the car shed at Aarey colony.
However, the Maha Vikas Aghadi government, which has already declared the 600 acres of land near Sanjay Gandhi National Park (SGNP) in suburban Mumbai as a ‘forest’, wants to shift the car shed to Kanjurmarg. Due to the continuous tussle between former allies BJP and Shiv Sena, the Metro-3 project, which was sanctioned in 2015 and started in 2019, is yet to be completed.
