Responding to concerns raised by residents facing displacement due to the Elphinstone bridge demolition, the MMRDA has asked affected families to search for homes on their own from a newly issued list of “available” houses. Residents of Haaji Noorani said MMRDA officials shared a fresh list of transit accommodation options last Friday and asked families to identify suitable homes themselves. However, project-affected persons (PAP) who tried verifying the addresses claim the list contains multiple discrepancies.

House already occupied

“When we checked the Ahilya Building in Dadar West, the watchman told us that a family is already staying in flat 502, which is mentioned in this fresh list. After confirming this, we called Ghule, the MMRDA officer we have been corresponding with, and informed him.
