Mired in controversy since its inception, the Gateway of India precinct 
beautification project is now in the midst of yet another storm.
This time, trustees of the Mumbai Port Trust (MbPT), which owns the land 
on which the iconic monument stands, has alleged that the Brihanmumbai 
Municipal Corporation (BMC) has ignored a stop-work notice issued by the 
port trust.

The BMC was allotted the 6,700-sq mt plot including the garden and the 
roads around the Gateway of India on a 30-year lease by the MbPT board 
of trustees in 1976. The MbPT recovered a monthly rent of Re 1, but the 
lease expired in January 2006.
