Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis yesterday said detailed project reports for metro rail in Kalyan, Bhiwandi and Thane were ready and they would be approved soon. He made the announcement after performing ‘bhoomi pooja’ for the two proposed bridges on the Ulhas river between Durgadi Fort and Motagaon in Kalyan.


Speaking at the function, Fadnavis made a reference to traffic woes in Kalyan and said he also faced them when he came to the city for electioneering in 2014 Lok Sabha polls.


He indirectly referred to the Shiv Sena performing the ‘bhoomi pooja’ for the two bridges on Saturday and said that Sunday’s programme was an official one and such small things should be ignored.

He said the Government has made preparations to extend metro rail up to Kalyan, Bhiwandi and Dombivili. The CM further said that funds have been made available for infrastructure development in Thane, Kalyan, Dombivili and Ambernath.

The task to develop Kalyan-Dombivili as a Smart City is to be undertaken by Oracle, a US-based computer technology firm, he said.
