The Bombay high court on Thursday said no interference is called for in the redevelopment of BDD chawls comprising 15,000 tenements at N M Joshi Marg, Naigaon and Worli, as it has not been demonstrated to be against the permissions or environmental clearances
The HC disposed of a PIL filed in 2019 by a civil engineer, an urban planning expert and architect Sulakshna Mahajan seeking to quash the schemes for redevelopment of BDD chawls, built in 1920-25. Their concern was that the redevelopment plans were haphazard and raised possibilities of TB spread due to poor ventilation in a crowded setting of the proposed rehabilitation buildings
