A group of 15 lessees, tenants, and occupants of the Mumbai Port Trust (MbPT) plots and structures along the Eastern Water front from Colaba to Wadala-Sewri will meet Union Shipping Minister Nitin Gadkari. Today, the MbPT tenants who have been fighting the eviction notices being issued to them were to have a big protest near Regal in the city. But the Delhi call has lead them to postpone that plan.
