Aarey Tree Cutting Row: Supreme Court Stays Felling of Trees on Mumbai's Metro Line 4 Project
For the second time within two months, the Supreme Court has intervened to stop felling of trees for the Mumbai Metropolitan Regional Development Authority' (MMRD) Metro rail projects. On Monday, the apex court stayed, for two weeks, axing of trees on the Metro Line 4 (Wadala to Kasarvadali via Thane). Last month, it had ordered no tree be cut in the Aarey colony forest area for the Metro car shed.
