Thousands of Mulund residents on Sunday marched amid rainfall to the site of the Slum Rehabilitation Authority (SRA) building where 7,500 project-affected families are to be rehabilitated. Locals warned that this was their last peaceful protest.

We have been protesting for the past ten months and work on the building has not stopped. It has shot up to seven floors now. This protest is purely by local residents of Mulund. If the government does not step in and halt work on such projects, we will be forced to take on an aggressive campaign,” said advocate Sagar Devre, convenor of the movement, who has also filed a PIL into the issue.
