HC Plea Seeks Resumption Of Non-Parking Works At Deekshabhoomi
Nagpur: Amid a state-imposed stay on the controversial underground parking project at Deekshabhoomi, a fresh plea was filed in Nagpur bench of Bombay high court urging the govt to resume other halted works unrelated to the parking structure. The application was submitted during the hearing of a pending PIL concerning Deekshabhoomi's overall development. Advocate Shailesh Narnaware argued that while the parking component remains contested, several crucial elements of the master plan were also stalled unnecessarily. "Only the parking facility has been stayed. The govt must proceed with other planned works by holding cabinet meetings, completing procedural approvals, and releasing necessary funds," he urged. The plea also sheds light for the first time on a previously undisclosed land-use proposal. According to documents now on record, the master plan developed by Noida-based Design Associates Incorporated was based on a total of 37.84 acres. This includes the existing 22.80 acres with Deekshabhoomi, along with 11 acres from the health department and 3.84 acres from the Cotton Research Institute. Nagpur Improvement Trust (NIT) has been identified as the implementing agency. A Deekshabhoomi Smarak Samiti member earlier wrote to the district collector seeking formal transfer of the additional land and administrative approval for the Rs325.86 crore master plan. The court is expected to consider the plea in upcoming hearings.
