Twenty Six years might not seem like a long time ago, but in Jogeshwari East, which was among the suburbs affected in the 1993 riots, that tragedy is now distant memory. 

Residents of Jogeshwari's erstwhile Radhabai Chawl, now known as Gandhi Chawl, where six people from the Hindu community were burnt alive in January 1993, refused to comment on the Supreme Court's verdict. In fact, nobody even acknowledged that an incident of that kind, had taken place here. Most residents claimed to have been living here for the last 25 years, and were not aware of the riots.
