AMID the MMRDA fast-tracking the work to complete phase II of the Metro-2A between D N Nagar and Dahanukar Wadi, citizens have raised concerns about the names of stations. The Lokhandwala Oshiwara Citizen`s Association (LOCA) has written a letter to MMRDA commissioner S V R Srinivas, demanding that the name ‘Lower Oshiwara’ be changed as there is no place as such.

LOCA chairperson Dhaval Shah, in the letter dated July 15, wrote, “This is to bring to your notice that the new metro station for 2A to be named near Infiniti mall, Link Road at Andheri Lokhandwala proposed at your end as Lower Oshiwara. However there is no such place as Lower Oshiwara and moreover it will also cause confusion to travellers since the next metro station on the same line is to be named as Oshiwara. Hence we request you to kindly change the name from Lower Oshiwara for Lokhandwala. Looking forward to a positive reply from you (sic).”
