The Development Plan department of the BMC has decided to allow temporary studios/sets for the shooting of films, TV serials, advertisements, documentaries and allied activities in the city by amending the Development Control and Promotion Regulations (DCPR) 2034.

- Yogesh Naik

MUMBAI:

Sources in the BMC allege that this is being done to save the illegal studios in the Madh-Marve-Gorai belt.

The notice to invite suggestions and objections was published on Friday.

The BJP had created a major ruckus when the erstwhile Maharashtra Vikas Aghadi (MVA) government allowed temporary studios on land falling in CRZ (Coastal Regulation Zones) areas where construction activity is kept strictly in check.

BJP leader Kirit Somaiya had taken up the issue, lodged complaints and toured the area extensively.
