Listen "The Great Mumbai Land Grab"
Episode Synopsis
Mumbai’s land belongs to its people — not to politicians, builders, or bureaucrats. Yet, across Maharashtra, public land is being quietly ‘monetised’ and handed over to private developers under the guise of redevelopment and modernisation. From the Parth Pawar land deal in Pune to the proposed monetisation of BEST depots, this video exposes how public assets are being stripped, leased, and sold for short-term fiscal gains.Sucheta Dalal explains how this unchecked land grab is turning Mumbai into a city of gated luxury towers and disappearing public spaces. It’s time citizens drew a red line and demanded transparency, accountability, and a Public Land Protection Act. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
