The Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation has proposed to prepare digital maps to demarcate the buffer zone (up to 4 kilometre) surrounding the Sanjay Gandhi National Park (SGNP) in Borivli. The project is expected to help the BMC identify the boundaries of the development areas, as the proposal also includes superimposing Development Plan 2034 on the maps.

In 2016, the Centre had declared the SGNP as an eco-sensitive zone, and as per its notification, a regional plan is to be prepared for this area. Accordingly, the municipality has now decided to prepare a digital map of SGNP. For this, aerial photography will be done, and the BMC will make a zonal master plan of the area. The proposal is aimed at further putting an end to the debate on the controversial Metro car shed at Aarey. A zonal master plan, which will clearly define the boundaries of SGNP, will leave no room for further development in the eco-sensitive zone.
