The congested L ward will get slightly greener as a reserved plot at Sangharsh Nagar in Chandivli will be converted into a park, while Gandhi Maidan in Kurla West, which had seen much encroachment, will also be spruced up. The Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation (BMC) will spend Rs 5.36 crore to develop these parks and the work will begin soon.

In a report on Patwardhan Park in Bandra West, currently in the eye of a storm because the BMC plans to construct a parking lot underneath the space, there was one comment that stood out. A person stated that while the city is making a Metro network, with an aim to reduce the number of cars on the road, the civic authorities want to create parking lots. Therein lies the contradiction.
