According to the petition, 155.642 km out of the 508-km long corridor, passes through Maharashtra and affects 131.3 hectares of forest area, including mangroves spread over 32.43 hectares.More
The expert appraisal committee of Ministry of Environment and Forests (MoEF) gave its nod to the proposal by National High Speed Rail Corporation Limited (NHSRCL), seeking permission to remove mangroves in Thane, Navi Mumbai and Palghar districts to make way for the Mumbai-Ahmedabad bullet train project, and informed the Bombay High Court on Monday.

On March 18, the counsel for Maharashtra Coastal Zone Management Authority (MCZMA), Sharmila Deshmukh, informed the court that the NHSRCL proposal had been approved and a request sent to the MoEF for the final nod.

citizen movement against government move & petition this way we can reduce the destruction and even force them to look for alternative way . i'm not against any party but present coalition govt is destroying greenery in bengaluru in name of development and it will turn into full concrete jungle , not caring for lakes . sadly no party in india cares for environment .
