Cattle farm owners living in government quarters at Aarey Milk Colony for decades have been told to vacate the premises. The office of Aarey’s chief executive officer has served notices to these tabela owners saying that the government has asked them to cancel the allotments. About 100 family members of cattle farm owners live in 40-50 government quarters. The move could be the outcome of the crisis-ridden MVA government’s hurry to take several decisions, said a few tabela owners.

Sources said the Aarey CEO has also written to the Aarey Colony Milk Producers Association (ACMPA), asking its members to leave the quarters. However, no deadline has been set for this.
