Creek reclamation rude shock, say Manori locals

The Manori residents woke up on Sunday morning to find several truckloads of boulders and mud dumped on the mangrove swamp in the nearby creek. The Mumbai Maritime Board (MMB) said that the reclamation was being done to build an approach road to the new jetty for the Roll-On RollOff (RoRo) service planned between Manori and Marve. The new transport mode will replace the ferry that operates at the Manori creek currently.
