The Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation (BMC) on Monday demolished 45 constructions along the Jogeshwari Vikhroli Link Road (JVLR) to clear the way for the Mumbai Metro Pink Line 6.

Officials claimed their actions would not only speed up Metro project work but also help to reduce traffic congestion in the area and pave the way for the construction of a 36.60-metre-wide road that was to be built under the Development Plan.
