Meanwhile, in November last year, The Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation (BMC) had demolished 45 constructions along the Jogeshwari Vikhroli Link Road (JVLR) to clear the way for the Mumbai Metro Line 6.
The officials had then claimed their actions would not only speed up Metro project work but also help to reduce traffic congestion in the area and pave the way for the construction of a 36.60-metre-wide road that was to be built under the Development Plan.
With the help of the Oshiwara police last year, the civic body took long-pending action against encroachers near Veera Desai Road and 90 Feet Road in Jogeshwari West.
A civic official had earlier said that the demolition had been delayed due to court cases as well as the involvement of several authorities.
