Thane civic body unveils draft of updated development plan

The Thane Municipal Corporation released a draft of its first revised development plan for the city on Monday, proposing various open spaces and recreational avenues, among other features.

Officials stated that citizens could access the plans and submit their suggestions or objections within the next 60 days.

However, the Congress party objected to the sudden and discreet announcement of the plan, questioning whether it was a tactic to benefit a specific business group and secure funding for the upcoming elections.

A civic official explained that the first development plan for Thane city was approved in 1999 and was due for revision after its 20-year tenure ended a few years ago. The revised development plan, along with detailed plans and maps, is available for public access on the TMC website and at the municipal headquarters in Panchpakhadi. Copies can be obtained by paying a nominal fee.
