Lok Chalwal members led protest against Dharavi rehab land acquisition

An excavator arrives to begin the clean-up

Residents of Nehru Nagar voiced strong opposition to the cleaning of the Kurla Dairy in Kurla East on Tuesday morning, which was intended for a land survey. In response, authorities halted the clean-up following the residents’ resistance. The Dharavi Redevelopment Authority has sought to acquire 21 acres of land from Mother Dairy, widely known as Kurla Dairy, to rehabilitate Dharavi residents who are ineligible for existing rehabilitation schemes.

The Dharavi Redevelopment Authority initiated a cleaning and pre-marking drive at Kurla Dairy. A team of officials, equipped with machinery, visited the site to carry out the work. However, upon learning of the operation, members of Lok Chalwal arrived at the dairy premises to oppose the drive. Officials later confirmed that the work was stopped due to the resistance.
