Amid reports that the Maha Vikas Aghadi has stalled all big-ticket infra projects that were revised or started afresh by the previous government, CM Uddhav Thackeray was given a comprehensive presentation by the respective agencies on Tuesday, after which the CM said that no project was stalled. He has instead decided to expedite them and implement new ones that his government has ideated on.
The CM was briefed about Metro III and other lines in Mumbai and elsewhere, city's trans-harbour link and coastal road, Navi Mumbai Airport and Bandra-Versova sea link among others. Aspects like financials, execution and deadlines were discussed, said a top official. The meeting lasted about four hours. Thackeray said after the meeting that he hasn't stopped any project but he would definitely keep reviewing them further to expedite them. "I have stalled the Metro III Aarey car depot, and nothing else. I will let you know about any other decision as and when taken."
