Worli, which held significance during the tenure of the previous government due to Chief Minister Uddhav Thackeray’s son Aaditya being the MLA from the assembly constituency, continues to be a priority even after a change in government. It appears that the new administration intends to make things challenging for Aaditya’s re-election by giving importance to Worli. The BMC, under Chief Minister Ekanth Shinde’s regime, has decided to paint the walls and roofs of Worli Koliwada houses, showcasing their uniqueness.

The ambitious Mumbai Coastal Road project is set to be completed by May 2024, enabling vehicles to travel from Bandra to Marine Lines. As part of the city beautification drive, BMC plans to create an eye-catching look for Worli Koliwada by painting the walls and roofs of the houses. The project, estimated to cost over R2 crore, is currently in the final stages of approval. CM Ekanth Shinde’s vision has also led to the initiation of a comprehensive city beautification drive worth Rs 2,200 crore.
