An elderly couple from Bai Hirabai Tata Memorial Trust Parsi Colony in Bandra West are a harrowed lot after they were told to vacate their current residence on the first floor of Jeevanbai building, which has been their home for over five decades. The building is in the middle of a controversy with both sides alleging that the other’s allegations are false. The sprawling and quaint society, spread over 1-2 acres with a few hundred residents at a dozen buildings, on Swami Vivekanand Road is decades old.

The zoroastrian octogenarian couple, Shirin and Rustom Irani, said these developments are concerning, but they do not wish to engage in any dispute at their age. Shirin said. “The secretary of our society, Kashmira Kapadia, has been troubling us and is eyeing our house. There are only two tenants left in this building while the next building has already been vacated. The idea is to turn the vacated buildings into ownership flats and sell them for crores. We barely manage our daily lives while our children live in America. Where do we go at this age?”
