National Wildlife Board clears twin tunnel under national park, 235 trees to go
The Sanjay Gandhi National Park in Mumbai will have a tunnel drilled under its core eco-sensitive area to connect Thane to Borivali. The proposal to build the tunnel has been cleared by the National Board For Wildlife, with 235 trees set to be cut down for its construction.

The tunnel is seen as a solution to protect the area from heavy traffic and human habitation pressure.
