The Bombay High Court on Friday restrained the Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation (BMC) from carrying out any work on the proposed cycling and jogging track along Powai lake in the city, citing that such work was "illegal".

A bench of Chief Justice Dipankar Datta and Justice V G Bisht said the BMC's project and its reclamation of Powai lake for the same, breached the Wetlands (Conservation and Management) Rules.
