Delays come in all shapes and sizes, and sometimes, they come in the form of inaugurations. Thanks to Chief Minister Prithiviraj Chauhan, the inaugurations of three major CIDCO projects –– namely the metro rail in Navi Mumbai, the golf course in Kharghar and the mass-housing scheme in Kharghar — have been postponed. Not once, but three. And, now CIDCO is not sure when the inauguration will be held as code of conduct is in force due to local elections in Raigad.

CIDCO is set to start construction of metro rail station. However, the next phase cannot not be started, as the official inauguration is still pending. File Photo
