Will the mangroves in and around Mumbai never be safe? The newest threat to them seems to be the Metro. Activists have alleged that trees chopped to make way for it are being dumped within 50 metres of the mangroves at Ganpat Patil Nagar in Dahisar West. To add to this, hundreds of empty plastic mineral water bottles and glass beer bottles are also being thrown there.
