Did the Prakash Ambedkar group, which is at loggerheads with the People’s Improvement Trust over the demolition of Ambedkar Bhavan, not know of it in advance? Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation (BMC) documents show that a member of this group had received a copy of the notice in June itself and the Trustees had also sent them a copy of the caveat filed in court. Why then did they raise an alarm only after the building was demolished?
