Even as a letter from India’s Attorney General to the Maharashtra State Road Development Corporation (MSRDC) said the Worli-Haji Ali Sea Link and the proposed coastal road cannot co-exist, officials maintained that the letter does not recommend that the project be scrapped.

Last week, Attorney General G E Vahanvati sent a letter to the MSRDC recommending the future course of action on the sea link, which has been stalled for two years now, after the latter asked him for his opinion.
