The process of handing over part of the racecourse land to the Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation (BMC) is in its final stages. The Royal Western India Turf Club will hand over a 120-acre plot to the BMC. Civic Chief Bhushan Gagrani confirmed that the process of handing over the 120-acre plot is nearing completion. “Yes, the process of handing over the plot is in its final stages,” said Gagrani.

“We hope that the land transfer process will be completed in a few days. There are some pending formalities with the paperwork, which will be completed soon,” another official stated. “There are plans to develop a multi-storey stable for horses and build a subway to connect the Coastal Road park and the proposed racecourse park,” the official added. “This will be the only official garden. Additionally, we will relocate slum residents to nearby SRA projects,” the official further explained.
