There are suspicions of serious irregularities in the much-discussed and ambitious Dharavi redevelopment project in Mumbai, with allegations of homes being grabbed using fake documents. Taking note of this matter, the Dharavi Redevelopment Project (DRP) administration has established a three-member inquiry committee. All eyes are now on the report of this committee.
A large-scale survey was conducted to determine the eligibility of citizens under the Dharavi Redevelopment Project. However, there is a strong discussion about irregularities in this survey process. According to the information received, it is alleged that nearly 50 people have seized houses in the redevelopment project based on fake documents. Notably, there is a serious allegation that some individuals were deemed eligible even though they do not actually have a house in Dharavi.
A written complaint has been filed directly with the Dharavi Redevelopment Project administration by former legislators regarding this entire matter. The complaint notes that eligibility was approved without verifying documents, highlighting errors in the survey. It is also mentioned in the complaint that this malpractice has created the possibility of injustice to many local citizens eligible for redevelopment.
Taking these complaints seriously, the DRP administration has established a three-member inquiry committee. This committee will conduct an in-depth investigation of all aspects from the survey process to eligibility determination. It is stated that the committee will particularly focus on the basis of documents on which eligibility was approved, the authenticity of those documents, and the role of the concerned officials.
Currently, the committee members are busy with various election process tasks, so the inquiry report has not yet been submitted. However, according to information received from the administration, the committee's report is expected to be received within the next ten days. It is believed that the truth of the entire matter will come to light through this report.
The Dharavi redevelopment project is considered one of the largest urban redevelopment projects in the country. Therefore, any kind of malpractice in this project is considered not only administratively but also socially serious. As questions are being raised about the rights of local residents, transparency, and fair process, this matter has also caught the attention of the political circles.
Will action be taken against those found guilty after the inquiry report, what steps will be taken against individuals deemed eligible through fake documents, and will the responsibility of the officers involved in the survey process be determined, there is curiosity about this. It is speculated that many shocking aspects of this case may be revealed in the coming days.
