MUMBAI: Barely months before the Centre opposed the state’s bid to shift the Metro car shed to Kanjurmarg, the Union ministry of commerce may have been preparing to hand over the same plot for the Metro 6 depot.
In a letter dated July 31, 2020, under secretary P K Pattnaik wrote to the salt commissioner: “You are requested to conduct joint survey and submit joint survey report within one week (along with revised market value of the land, if there is any change in the area of the land after joint survey), so as to enable this department to prepare the proposed cabinet note.”
