The Bombay High Court on Thursday ordered the Directorate General of Civil Aviation (DGCA) to issue notices to 112 high-rises that fall in the air funnel zone on the either ends of the runway at the Mumbai International Airport. The court also asked BMC, Airports Authority of India (AAI) and DGCA to make sure no object is higher than 56 metres (roughly 13 floors) in a 4-km radius around the airport. If there is any antenna, pole or mobile tower, the court asked the authorities to immediately remove it.

The court also asked authorities to make sure that no pole, antenna or mobile tower is present above 56 metres within a 4-kilometre radius around the airport. File pic for representation
