Government employees residing on Kurla Dairy land oppose demolition of buildings
Notices to vacate building on Kurla Dairy land within seven days
The Adani Group is building houses for residents under the Dharavi redevelopment project on the site of Kurla Dairy in the Kurla East area of Mumbai city, so the people living in this area have been asked to vacate the site.But the residents have opposed the vacating of the site in the face of the monsoon season.
On July 29, the in-charge manager had issued eviction notices to the residents of Kurla Dairy. They also said that they must vacate the premises within seven days and accept an alternative place, otherwise action will be taken as they do not want the alternative place.Citizens opposed this notice and also expressed their displeasure over it.
This land in the Kurla Dairy area is 21 acres in size and in this area, Class IV government employees have been living in these six buildings for years. These residents have been living here for more than 25 years.Therefore, the residents of this kurla dairy building are facing various problems due to the eviction notices. The government has provided alternative housing options, but these alternative homes are located in far-flung places like Andheri and Goregaon.These people, who have been living there for years, will have to vacate their homes due to this recent notice, so these citizens have also strongly opposed this decision.
On this proposed site, a building will be constructed by the Adani Group for Dharavi slums through Navbharat Megha Developers, and the residents of Dharavi will be relocated to it.The government is currently looking into various alternative sites for Dharavi residents in Mumbai, so this site will also be given for this project.The Dharavi redevelopment project is an ambitious project of the government, so the government is also taking big steps for the residents of this area.
The Kurla Dairy land is 21 acres in size and its land value is Rs 1300 crores. This land was sold to the Adani group for just Rs 57.86 lakhs, the organization has also alleged.Therefore, he has also said that there is a plan to put Mumbai under Adani’s control. The ownership of this land belongs to the Ministry of Dairy Development, and the ministry is currently headed by BJP’s Atul Save.They have also said that BJP leaders are in a hurry to give this land to Adani, so the citizens of this area have expressed their hope that the government should give the entire matter a thorough consideration and take the right decision in the matter.
It is currently the rainy season, so it will be difficult to migrate in the face of the monsoon. Similarly, the school of the children of the families living in this area is also in this area.Therefore, both these problems, as well as the provision of alternative locations that are far away, have caused citizens to express their current distress.In this regard, he has expressed his grief to former Chief Minister of Maharashtra and Shiv Sena party chief Uddhav Thackeray.Since the residents of this building are government employees, they cannot accept the option of protesting and have presented their case to Uddhav Thackeray.He has also expressed his demand that Uddhav Thackeray should look into this matter and resolve this problem. Also local residents demand that various political leaders pay attention to this matter.
Local residents of this area have also written letters to Maharashtra Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis, stating that it is not conducive to migration during this monsoon season.Devendra Fadnavis has also said that positive steps will be taken in this regard.
