Parsi leaders meet Uddhav Thackeray over shifting of Metro III alignment

Pervez Cooper, vice-president of Clean Heritage Colaba Residents Association (CHCRA), who had started a signature campaign over the issue, said, “We had a positive meeting with him (Uddhav). He has assured that the matter will be discussed with higher level authorities and he will speak to the Chief Minister, if necessary. He will also visit the sites soon.”

The signature campaign against the issue had received more than 3,500 signatures, while an online petition, on Change.org, garnered over 11,000 signatures.

During the meeting, the community also sought Uddhav’s intervention in ensuring that the existing no-fly zone over Tower of Silence at Malabar Hill remains unaffected.
