Slums will be re-constructed in Nonadanga

Comments(7) Sub Category:Kolkata,Realty News,Residential Real Estate Posted On: Apr 23, 2012

The Kolkata Municipal Development Authority has demolished the slums in Nonadanga on March 30th. But 130 families had refused to give up and they started living under the open sky.

To protest against the demolish of the slum, activists went for a hunger strike.

After a 14 days strike, the activists achieved the reconstruction assurance from the government. And the activists demanded proper rehabilitation for those displaced. With this decision the atmosphere of the residential properties in Kolkata will remain in same state.

Now the state government has opted to go slow on the Nonadanga eviction issue as the matter turned into a major controversy in the state politics over the last few weeks.

    These slum dwellers are doing many jobs in the city. In a city every middle class person need two and every rich person needs six poor man as domestic help or richsaw walla or etc . So , if they disappear , city will not run. Let govt think for the city and need of poor men for rich men’s benefit.
