Shifting metro carshed from #Aarey may cost us a few thousand crores more (Mumbai can afford it) and it may take a couple of more years to complete but the environmental gains from this decision is something future generations will applaud us for.

#SaveAarey #SaveAareyForest
There is no doubt Mumbai urgently needs the #Metro and it is an immensely important project for the city. It needs to be completed as soon as possible. But while achieving this, if we can save green cover in a green starved city like Mumbai, nothing like it.

#SaveAarey
As someone who uses public transport for personal travel (I don't own a car) I am very keen that the #Metro is completed as soon as possible. But to do so we can't disregard the environmental cost completely. We have to make every effort to save spaces like #Aarey

Dear Maharashtra,

Tomorrow you go to vote and even as you walk towards your voting booth...... Please THINK!

#VisruNaka #SaveAareyForest
THINK.. about the horrible conditions of the roads in your city and across the state. Try and remember the last time when the roads were so bad in Maharashtra.

#VisruNaka
THINK..... about the potholes in your area and how 13,000 people died in just one year because of the accidents caused.

Why selective protest against, 'Metro Shed' only, while there is absolute silence on 'Film City'& 'Royal Palms' etc. #AareyExpose

Just think...
This photo explains a lot. Just see how tiny area will be used for metro car shed. Look at the yellow part.

So why this HALLA GULLA over a small area which is given for construction of #MetroRailway3
Why is Catholic church up in arms against this project ?

Doing a thread on some of the blatant lies by the #SaveAareyForest organisers, based on their own website and statements of representatives. This is the site. letindiabreathe.in/blog/aarey-fac… I will post screenshots so that they can’t back out of what has been written.
According to the website, Aarey is home to butterflies like plain and striped tiger, pansies and mormons - these are some of the commonest butterflies in the country, they’re literally everywhere. Rollers, grey hornbills, starlings and ibis listed as rarest birds. Outrageous lie.
According to their website, Metro 6 shed is already being built at Kanjurmarg on the plot they claim MMRDA says is not possible. They’ve written this twice. Fact: Metro 6 shed location was shifted by govt from Aarey to Wadala on 11 Sept 2019, Kanjurmarg shed is a blatant lie.

WHY IS PM MODI INAUGURATING – the 38 Storied #MetroRailBhavan – ILLEGAL INSIDE AAREY as there are NO CLEARANCES AS YET

Why this Monstrosity HAS TO BE INSIDE AAREY 😡

Or Is it Just Like PM Inaugurated #ShivajiStatue in the Sea

#SaveAarey #SaveAareyForest Propaganda vs Facts
Also, the plot where Metro shed will be built is NOT a forest area.

Check the location - it's right next to JVLR.

See the satellite image - most of the plot is covered in grass, 5 hectares of trees will be preserved.

Check other construction in Aarey Colony area.

Dear #Mumbai:Is this ur 11 year gift to me: acute bronchitis & loads of meds?The doc looked apologetic while checking out my nearly wheezing state. It all started with the big #Deonar dumpyard fire of 2016, followed by3more huge fires (apparently manmade)in 3 weeks 😡#AirQuality Image
I’d hardly coughed b4 that, now I dread December-1 of my favourite months.When #Gulzar wrote “seene mein jalan, ankhon mein toofan sa kyon hai, is shahar mein har shaqs pareshaan sa kyon hai...”did he predict my condition&of several thousand #Mumbaikars just wanting to breathe.
We don’t even know what fresh air is anymore!This #MaximumCity rejected #CharlesCorrea as he planned for a city of hope and love, in turn he also left it to deal with its own greed 😱#SaveAareyForest #Letusbreathe #AirPollution #ClimateJustice #cleanenergy #ActOnClimate @Nitika_A
