The Mumbai Metropolitan Region Development Authority (MMRDA) is awaiting approval for its ambitious plan to create a third Mumbai under the New Town Development Authority (NTDA) beyond the Nhava-Shivadi Sea Link (MTHL) in Raigad district. This proposal involves acquiring land from 124 villages to develop the area similarly to CIDCO.
However, the plan has met with opposition from farmers and developers, particularly in the Naina and Khopta Nave Shahar regions. The government aims to acquire land from 77 villages in the Naina area and 33 villages in Khopta Nave Shahar, including those under the CIDCO special authority.
