Citizens living near Juhu Koliwada say authorities are turning a blind eye to illegal encroachment in Versova. Hutments are coming up near a mangrove patch and forested area, a report in this paper said. An activist had already alerted local leaders through social media and had tagged Environment Minister Aaditya Thackeray too in his tweet.

According to those concerned, there has been no action and even more illegal encroachment has come up despite the complaint.
