Shiv Sena top brass meets Colaba on Sunday, assures action on Port Trust notices and evictions

The audience at the interactive session
It was full house at Radio Club Residency Lounge, as Colaba locals and others traipsed in on Sunday (April 21) morning for a meet with SoBo's Shiv Sena candidate Arvind Sawant. The Mumbai Port Trust (MbPT) land, where several buildings have got eviction notices or told to pay rent at market rates running into crores, as well as the hawker problem on the Causeway were some top concerns.
Vote, please
First up, Atul Zaveri trustee of My Dream Colaba (MCD) told the people to, "vote or lose the right to complain." Colaba corporator Makarand Narvekar said, "Take onus of your building and ensure that everybody votes." The meeting spiced up as Narvekar took a swipe with no names taken, saying, "We see a new trend with industrialists supporting candidates. Yet, we do not need industrialists to tell us who to vote for." There were a few chuckles, as this was a reference to Mukesh Ambani and Uday Kotak backing Congress's Milind Deora, standing against Sawant.
