BMC Counsel also informed the Court that the civic body had identified three open plots in the metropolis for building night shelters and that the process of constructing them would begin soon.
The statement made by BMC was taken on record by Chief Justice Mohit Shah and Justice Anoop Mohata who were hearing a PIL filed by Homeless Collective, alleging paucity of night shelters in the city and apathy of the state authorities in having them.
Earlier, in June, the civic body had assured the high court that it will set up 25 night shelters for the homeless before the month-end to give them shelter.
The PIL also alleged that the state had made false submissions to the Court on the number and condition of shelters in Mumbai.
The judges directed the BMC to take suggestions from non-governmental organisations on how to inform the homeless about these shelters.
