The Western Railway and the Mumbai Municipal Corporation have been negotiating for five years over a year the handing over of a very small part of land to get the three escalators built at Jogeshwari station on the west side.

The problem is that the railway station escalators in the west need to land in the BMC area for which permission is needed from the BMC. Interestingly, a local activist has been physically visiting both railways and BMC offices to get the work done conveying what each other are saying with almost no interaction between the two bodies.
