There has been some cheer with Uddhav Thackeray calling for a stay on the Metro car shed at Aarey. The green warriors have been fighting for alternate sites in the city for the car shed. It will now be a wait-and-watch time to see how the government moves on Aarey.

The Save Aarey group wants the new chief minister to declare Aarey a forest. That might take a while, though. The new troika comprising the state government must look at all open spaces in the city.

The Shiv Sena was very strident some years earlier, calling for horse racing to be moved out of Mahalaxmi race course, branding it as an elite sport.
