Maharashtra Govt Sets Up Committee to Resolve Salt Pan Land Legal Disputes for Dharavi Redevelopment

The Maharashtra government has set up a committee to resolve pending court cases over salt pan lands at Kanjurmarg and Bhandup, crucial for the Dharavi Redevelopment Project. The move clears the way for construction of rental and affordable housing for ineligible residents displaced under the scheme. The panel, led by senior officials including the Additional Chief Secretaries of Revenue, Housing, and Urban Development, will guide legal action to unlock 255.9 acres of land approved for transfer by the Centre.
