Mumbai Railway Vikas Corporation (MRVC) on Tuesday said all major statutory approvals, including land acquisition, environmental clearances, and forest clearances, have been obtained

The officials said that the project was progressing in a planned manner with coordinated execution across civil, electrical, signalling, and track works, while ensuring safety and minimal disruption to existing train operations
