JANUARY-AUGUST 2018

Citizens file another petition in the Hon’ High Court Bombay against the change in reservation of land use to accommodate the Metro3 car shed in Aarey. The matter has been argued and is reserved for orders by the Hon’ High Court.

Though the status quo order for Aarey by the Hon’ NGT continues, yet,  in a brazen violation of the order, the work of Metro car shed was going on at the proposed site. Despite application for urgent hearing before the Hon’ NGT Pune, the matter could not be taken up in the absence of Judicial Member in the bench. Hence the matter was moved before the Hon’ NGT,  Principal Bench , New Delhi where it was heard on 3rd May 2018.

The Hon NGT confirms the status quo order for Aarey. The MMRCL moved an appeal before the Hon’ Supreme Court but the apexd court declined to give any relief to the MMRCL and upheld  the status quo order of the NGT.
