The wall being built in the river, dangerously narrowing its width

The Mumbai Mangrove Conservation Cell has confirmed that the construction of a concrete wall (retaining wall) for the 33.2 km Metro-3 (Colaba-Bandra-Seepz) at Dharavi has altered Mithi River's natural flow. In January, the Mangrove Cell team had visited the site to check the destruction or blockage of Mithi River due to the ongoing work near Dharavi Junction.
