 "Supreme Court")
The Supreme Court on Tuesday allowed Mumbai Metro to seek permission from the Tree Authority to cut down 84 trees for the metro car shed project.
The apex court modified its earlier order and allowed the Mumbai Metro Rail Corporation Ltd (MMRCL) to pursue its application before the Tree Authority.
"The MMRCL should be permitted to pursue its application with the Tree Authority (under the civic body of Mumbai) for felling 84 trees," a bench consisting of Chief Justice of India D Y Chandrachud and Justice P S Narasimha said.
The next hearing is likely to be in February next
