The Mogra pumping station project in Andheri, which has only been on the paper, can finally be seen getting on track after 17 years. This comes after the Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation (BMC), after several hurdles, submitted the cost of the disputed land in the Bombay High Court. The BMC had finalised a tender for the pumping station way back in 2021. The acquisition process of the land was delayed due to legal proceedings regarding land ownership between two private parties.
