The main reason for the delay is the non-receipt of Coastal Zone Management Plan (CZMP) maps from the National Centre for Sustainable Coastal Management (NCSCM), leading to project uncertainties and cost escalations.
Twenty infrastructure projects are affected, including passenger jetties and urban transit nodes.
The delays have led to significant cost escalations and the central government withdrawing approximately ₹220 crore allocated for port infrastructure development in Maharashtra.
NCSCM is responsible for preparing the Coastal Zone Management Plan (CZMP) maps, which are crucial for obtaining environmental clearances for infrastructure projects.
Accurate CZMP maps are vital for protecting coastal ecosystems, ensuring sustainable development, and preventing legal challenges and further project delays.
