Varsha gaikwad on dharavi redeveloopment project: The decision to give the land of Kurla Mother Dairy for the rehabilitation of the residents of Dharavi under the Dharavi Redevelopment Project in Mumbai is being opposed by the citizens. In this regard, Maharashtra CM Devendra Fadnavis has written a letter and informed about his opposition.
In the letter, Congress MP Varsha Gaikwad has written that under the Dharavi redevelopment project, the residents of Dharavi are going to be rehabilitated on the land of Mother Dairy in Kurla, not in Dharavi. Such a decision has been taken by the state government. Keeping in mind the interests of the developer, the terms and conditions have been changed to give the land of Kurla Mother Dairy, considered environmentally sensitive to the Dharavi redevelopment project.
Botanical Garden should be established
Varsha Gaikwad wrote in the letter that Kurla residents are being strongly opposed by the Kurla residents of Kurla Mother Dairy. There is a demand of the citizens that the Botanical Garden (Botanical Park) should be established there by not giving the land of Mother Dairy to the Dharavi redevelopment project. There are more than one thousand precious trees in this area and this area is very important in terms of environmental balance.
Government accused of not paying attention to the demand of citizens
According to the letter, protest rally, agitation and signature campaigns are being conducted by citizens for several days to save this land. But the government is not paying serious attention to this. Ignoring the opposition of the citizens, the government has decided to give this land to the Dharavi redevelopment project. Due to this, citizens are angry and make the movement more intense.
Therefore, this decision taken by the government is being strongly opposed by the government, ignoring public sentiments and environmental issues without taking citizens in confidence. We make a humble request to you on behalf of the citizens that this decision should be immediately canceled and set up a botanical garden at that place.
