Construction of overground Metro 2B corridor:
On December 22, 2022, the Bombay HC dismissed a Public Interest Litigation (PIL) challenging the construction of the overground Metro 2B corridor (DN Nagar to Mankhurd), passing through SV Road, in close proximity to Juhu airport in Mumbai. This was after the Director General of Civil Aviation (DGCA) informed the court that safety precautions had been taken and that rules had been followed.
The court took on record a DGCA affidavit, which stated that Airport Authority of India (AAI) had itself reduced the distance of Take-Off Runway Available (TORA) to 645 m, after removing 487 m of the total 1,132-m runway.
Advocate Rui Rodrigues, representing the DGCA at Bombay HC, submitted the affidavit filed on December 21 by Shruti Mishra, Deputy Director of Operations.
