MHADA Reclaims Eight Acres of Encroached Land in Juhu-Andheri

MHADA has reclaimed eight acres of encroached land in Juhu-Andheri following a Bombay High Court order. Unauthorized structures were cleared after the court denied a stay on their removal. The land, originally part of a slum rehabilitation project, was found ineligible for redevelopment. Despite ongoing litigation, illegal sheds were erected, prompting MHADA to take action. The clearance drive was carried out under official directives to enforce land reclamation and urban planning regulations.
