According to the Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation, the plot was reserved and the civic body intended to set up a waste treatment plant and a garden there. The Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation (BMC) on Friday morning removed 32 unauthorised encroachments from a 5,000 sq m land parcel in Chembur
Civic officials said that this plot was reserved under BMC’s 2034 development plan for public usage and the idea is to create a garden and set up a waste recycling plant on this plot. Civic officials said that since the plot was lying idle, it was taken over by encroachers. The officials also said that over the past few months, miscreants had tarnished the image of the locality by carrying out drug consumption and similar illegal activities in the plot
