Around 800 acres of land in Mumbai's Aarey has been declared a reserve forest and the proposed metro car shed will be shifted to Kanjurmag, Chief Minister Uddhav Thackeray has announced.

Development can co-exist with the environment." BJP MLA Atul Bhatkhalkar called it a "childish, anti-development decision taken by state government."
