Mumbai's Jai Bhim Nagar sees massive illegal demolitions
sabrangindia.inSome points I think deserve mentioning
- Jai Bhim Nagar consists of mostly Dalit and Bahujan people. Them being chosen as easy targets multiplies the inhumanity of this action.
- Some popular builders in Powai (Hiranandani and the like) have seized most of the land to build their own estates and this continues to today.
- That the demolition is illegal is based in the inhuman way it was carried out, which was in contravention of a Government Resolution that resolves not to demolish structures within the monsoon months. Slum rehabilitation laws exist for this purpose as well.
