Mumbai's rocky coast is where hundreds of marine species come to breed. Destroying the coastline will destroy the whole marine ecosystem

To combat climate change, we need to drive less and switch to public transport. The Coastal Road takes us in the wrong direction, increasing pollution and car density.

The approval for cutting of 2,700 trees by BMC despite a historic 1,20,000 plus objections being acknowledged by the tree authority, is a betrayal of Mumbaikars, we urge Mumbaikars to take to the ballot to vote out those responsible! 1/7

The party has always stood shoulder to shoulder with the 'Save Aarey' movement, & has organised Satyagrahas, mobilized support on the ground and even moved court when due process wasn't followed. 2/7
#SaveAareySaveMumbai
We feel it pertinent to point out that we aren't against the metro, we are against the proposed site of the metro-3 shed, which can be relocated to any of the 13 alternative sites, which the Govt of Maharashtra had accepted and found feasible. 3/7
