The plot CIDCO has allotted for the rugby ground
The CIDCO is again under scanner over a plot in Navi Mumbai allotted to a rugby ground. Environmentalists, in a letter to the chief minister and the high court-appointed wetland committee, said the land falls under the coastal regulation zone. CM Eknath Shinde has taken note of the complaint and has asked the urban development department to look into it.
NGO NatConnect Foundation Director B N Kumar, who complained to the government, said, “We are thankful to CM Eknath Shinde for his prompt response. We hope a detailed investigation will be conducted into this habitual burial of wetlands by CIDCO under the guise of development. We received an email from Shinde marking it to Bhushan Gagrani, principal secretary of urban development-1, in-charge of the state’s municipal corporations.”
