MUMBAI: Environmentalists are up in arms after the Navi Mumbai Municipal Corporation (NMMC) recently converted a pathway into a six-kilometre tarred road that cuts through 102 hectares of mangroves along Thane Creek. Greens fear that the pucca road will encourage trespassing into the mangrove zone and encroachment by builders.
