Indian Revives LED Illumination Plan for CST

The state government has revived its plan to illuminate Chhatrapati Shivaji Terminus, a Unesco world heritage site with LED lights. The project is expected to cost Rs 7.5 crore.

The lighting will also be done in keeping with the occasion such as the Tricolour on August 15 and January 26.

The proposal was first mooted a few years ago but failed to take off after Central Railway (CR) returned the Rs 5.5 crore it had received from the central government to illuminate the building. CR has also now evinced interest in executing the project.

A source said a meeting was convened by the state's chief secretary a few days ago to revive the proposal. The meeting was attended by officials of the Maharashtra Tourism and Development Corporation (MTDC) and railways.

The state government is planning to approach the Centre in the next financial year to seek funds for the project. An MTDC official said, "The illumination arrangement at present does not do justice to the grandeur and building. We are planning to draw attention to the building's intricate design and grandeur by illuminating each and every corner."
