‘Motorists Will Reach Bandra From Marine Drive In 10 Mins’, Says CM Shinde After Coastal Road Arm Inaugurated In Worli

Mumbai Coastal Road’s southbound arm, the ‘bowstring arch’ bridge connecting to the Bandra-Worli sea link was inaugurated by Chief Minister Eknath Shinde on Thursday afternoon. The bridge will connect Marine drive to Bandra and will provide signal-free ride to motorists.
The Coastal Road’s first arm was inaugurated in March this year. It is even inaugurated in stages. The section inaugurated today is one part of the southbound arm, and next the last part is expected to be completed in next 3 to 4 months.
The event which took place at Bindu Mandhav Thackeray chowk in Worli was also attended by Dy CM Devendra Fadnavis, BMC Commissioner Bhushan Gagrani and Iqbal Singh Chahal, former BMC chief and now the Additional Chief Secretary to the CM office.
‘This is a game changing project for Mumbai. Motorists can now cover the distance from Marine Drive to Bandra in 10 minutes. Further when the Bandra-Versova arm will be completed, the motorists will reach Versova from south Mumbai in 40 minutes, which otherwise takes 2 to 3 hours,” said CM Shinde at the inauguration event.
“It will save motorists time, they can spend more time with family and in return it will increase their work productivity. The decreased travel time will also save petrol consumption and fuel emission. It will also help in decreasing pollution in the city,” Shinde added.
The CM also highlighted the fishermen community’s demand have been addressed and the navigation span from 50 mts is increased to 150 mts.
Dy CM Devendra Fadnavis said that it is Mahayuti’s project. “As a CM I had taken all the permissions from the central government during the previous government. I gave that project to Uddhav Thackeray’s government. CM Eknath Shinde was also part of the government, so it is a Mahayuti project.”
“The project was planned from 25 long years, but we took required clearances from central government under the leadership of PM Modi and ensured the Coastal Road is completed on time,” Fadnavis added.
Both CM and Dy CM added that the government’s priority has always been Mumbai’s infrastructure development. The BMC has planted 1.5 lakh trees which will control pollution in Mumbai, CM Shinde said.

Bir Mecca Masjid bomb blast implementation of UAPA

Mumbai: Police has implemented UAPA Act in the Bir Ard Masla Mecca Masjid blast case. On the midnight of March 30, Vijay Agon and Shri Ram Ashok placed a bomb in the mosque and exploded it. This explosion was done with the help of jetliner and detonator. In this case, the police had earlier registered a case under Arms Act and other sections, but after that Muslim organizations had demanded to prosecute the accused under UAPA Act and NSA.
The Beed blast was investigated by the local crime branch, in which the crime branch found that the explosion was very powerful and detonators were also used along with jetliner rods. On this basis, UAPA Act has been implemented on the recommendation of the Crime Branch. Police have registered a case against both the terrorists under sections 16 and 18 of UAPA. Since the Beed blast, Maharashtra Anti-Terrorism Squad (ATS) is investigating it along with the police. The ATS is investigating the connection and financing of terrorists in this case, including how jetliner rods were made available to the accused and who provided them jetliner rods without license or permit. Along with this, investigation is also going on to find out how many more people and conspirators are involved in this case. ATS said that investigation is going on every aspect and point of the Beed bomb blast, however, ATS has so far questioned many people in this case, including family members and well-wishers of the accused as well as their friends and acquaintances. ATS is trying to uncover the conspiracy before the blast in the Beed Mecca Masjid blast case because before the blast, accused Vijay Agon had released a video and uploaded it on the status threatening Muslims to remove the mosque and only after that the blast took place here. The local police had also registered a case of spreading religious hatred against the accused a day earlier and the mosque was blown up the next day.

Actor Ajaz Khan’s Wife Fallon Guliwala Granted Bail in Drugs Case

Mumbai: Fallon Guliwala, wife of actor Ajaz Khan, who was arrested in November 2024 after narcotics were recovered from her residence, has been granted bail by a special court in Mumbai.
Guliwala had been in custody for over four months. The court has imposed certain conditions for her bail, including the submission of her passport, a restriction on travel, and mandatory attendance before the investigating officer three times a week until the chargesheet is filed.
Her lawyer, Ayaz Khan, argued that she was unaware of the recovered items and that she was not the only occupant of the premises. He also mentioned that the CCTV system was turned off during the raid, and no videography or photography was conducted.
Special Public Prosecutor Vibhavari Pathak opposed the bail plea, stating that a prima facie case existed against Guliwala.
Considering that the seizure process had already been completed, the court granted bail but with strict conditions.
