The Maharashtra state cabinet has approved the allocation of 30.2 acres of land within the 90-acre Bandra Government Colony (East) for the construction of a new integrated Bombay High Court complex, including associated residential quarters. The project is estimated to cost around ₹2,625 crore . To make space, internal roads and staff quarters have been removed and slum rehabilitation has commenced—138 tenements from Gautam Nagar have already been shifted to Kherwadi in April, with Samata Nagar to follow

Of the total land, 9.6 acres have already been transferred, and a further 4.1 acres—currently occupied by slums—are slated for handover in the next phase . The government architect ensured that amenities like playgrounds and gardens remain by relocating them within the colony, and the Urban Development Department has invited public feedback on the revised layout . Meanwhile, the PWD has completed two 22-storey staff housing buildings, with two more expected by early next year . Additionally, a ₹31.75 crore waiver has been granted to 254 rehabilitation flats in Malad (East) and Kandivli .
