Overview
- The High Court, hearing the case Friday, told the city corporation to file an affidavit on why the STP site moved from 17,756 sq m back toward about 27,700 sq m by next week.
- Judges M. S. Karnik and S. M. Modak also asked the Slum Rehabilitation Authority to explain the changed stance after a March 24 site visit where officials marked boundaries that a developer says left out a transit camp.
- The Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation said the smaller plot does not meet sewage plant needs and said it will reassess the requirement and seek the larger area, with the state government to take a call.
- In February, the court let BMC use 17,756 sq m and kept the rest under review, then last month it halted transit‑camp work that SRA had earlier approved despite BMC objections.
- Worli Urban Development Project LLP alleges mala fides and rising losses as part of a transit structure was demolished, and residents waiting for temporary housing face fresh delay until the land line is fixed.
