A week after mid-day in an investigative report pointed out how chawl-builder mafia were undeterred despite a landslide on July 13 which claimed two lives, two officials from the Vasai Virar City Municipal Corporation were transferred on Wednesday. While the civic body claimed it was routine transfer, activists said it was mere hogwash. The two officials who were transferred are Assistant Municipal Commissioner Neelam Nijai and Junior Engineer Kaustubh Tamore.

Asst Municipal Commissioner Neelam Nijai has not been assigned to any department yet
