Unauthorised construction work on the Irla nullah has brought to notice the misuse of open spaces and false permissions by the Slum Rehabilitation Authority
Architect PK Das in a meeting with Standing Committee Chairperson Rahul Shewale and other BMC officials on April 23 pointed out irregularities in the functioning of the Slum Rehabilitation Authority (SRA), forcing officials to answer difficult questions regarding the violation of rules and misuse of allotted open spaces in the city.
“The developer is carrying out construction work on government land opposite Club Millennium in Juhu besides the Irla nullah. They are also building a slab over the nullah, thereby covering it up. This could lead to flooding in the area,” said Das. He alleged that the authorities were hand-in-glove with the developer who is floating bogus documents.
