The Centre on Saturday cleared the Mumbai Trans Harbour Link project. The 22-km sea link will connect the island city at Sewri to Chirle, Nhavasheva, on the mainland in Raigad District.
Maharashtra Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis expressed thankfulness to Prime Minister Mr. Narendra Modi and Environment Minister Mr. Prakash Javadekar for issuing forest and environmental clearance.

He informed that besides Mumbai Trans Harbour Link project, the Union Environment Ministry also cleared Eco sensitive zone proposals for Karnala Sanctuary and Sanjay Gandhi National Park.
