The cabinet gave its nod for a proposal to rename the upcoming Versova-Bandra Sea Link after Savarkar and also decided to rename the MTHL as Atal Bihari Vajpayee Smruti Shivdi Nhava Sheva Atal Setu.
Shinde last month said the Versova-Bandra Sea Link will be named after Savarkar.
The upcoming 17-km sea link will connect Andheri to the Bandra-Worli Sea Link as part of the coastal road.
The MTHL will connect Mumbai to Navi Mumbai and is expected to be completed by December this year.
