In what can be termed as an important step taken by the Mangrove Cell, a cattle farm which had come up by encroaching on 2000 sq mtrs of mangrove land was demolished at Vashi.

The Mangrove Cell of the Forest Department had served a notice to one Pralhad Bhagat, a resident of Vashi village, who built a cattle shed and some other structures near a temple at Sector-6 of the Vashi node, said Range Forest Officer Sudhir Laxman Manjare of the Mangrove Cell, Navi Mumbai.
