As promised, 10 days after removing a Holy Cross located on Lady Jamshedji Road in Mahim for the ongoing Metro construction work in the area, officials of the Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation (BMC) and Mumbai Metro Rail Corporation Limited (MMRCL) reinstated it.
On June 8, members of Association of Concerned Catholics (AOCC) and Bombay Catholic Sabha (BCS) were present at the spot when the Holy Cross was removed. However, authorities concerned had promised that it would be brought back to its original spot within 10 days, once they finished work on that section of the road.
