The BMC has issued a circular to shift eligible slum dwellers of Singh Estate to construct the DP Road; the move is a relief to around 25,000 residents of Kandivali Lokhandwala and Hanuman Nagar, who face a struggle to reach Kandivali railway station from their location.
To draw attention, the citizens had also agitated on the Akurli road. Also, if the problem persist, they have threatened to block the Western Express Highway.
