Residents fight against builder to save mangrove
Lokhandwala residents are on a saving spree of a mangrove land.
The residents have put their heart out to save the land which might get used for illegal construction.
Nav Karan Co-operative Housing Society residents allege that a 10,000 sq m of mangrove land has been destroyed located near Oshiwara creek.
This destruction was done for construction of a 21-storey tower by a builder on 7741 square metre.
Due to uprooting of the mangroves, Nav Karan Co-operative Housing Society fears that it will lead to flooding during monsoon season.
