Following the Bombay High Court's order to stay the metro car shed work at Kanjurmarg on Wednesday, the opposition and the government argued over the money the relocated project would save or lose.
Opposition leader and former chief minister Devendra Fadnavis said, "Today's court decision is a slap in the face of the government. The Saunik committee appointed by this (MVA) government has said in its report that the Kanjurmarg site, if used for construction, would need extra expenditure of R5,000 cr and also cause a delay of 4.5 years," he said. "The government should read the report, accept the truth and shed its ego," said Fadnavis.
