While Mulund MLA Mihir Kotecha has suggested that land reclaimed from the dumping ground in his constituency be used to set up a golf course, residents of Hari Om Nagar have demanded that it should be repurposed for the benefit of common citizens.

Kotecha made the suggestion in a recent meeting with Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis. Mumbai North East MP Sanjay Patil, of the Shiv Sena (UBT), meanwhile, told mid-day that he had requested the state government to create a park or build a hospital or playhouse on the land.
