Well done Keep it up and try to finish it ahead of schedule.
The under-construction underground metro station falls in the Colaba-Seepz Metro 3 line that ends at the Aarey depot, for which the Supreme Court had ordered the state government to stop the felling of trees. The government had already cut 2,141 trees in the colony out of much 44 trees are said to be remaining.
The government's decision to build the Metro car shed in the Aarey Milk Colony was opposed by activists and environmental with many protests held till the apex court passed a verdict on the issue.
