The Post is for A to Z April 2015 Challenge, I took up a topic : 'U' for 'Unauthorized'
“For 30 years we are dwelling here.” Mr. Ray was trying to be louder, picking up his suitcase from the ground.
“For 30 years we are dwelling here.” Mr. Ray was trying to be louder, picking up his suitcase from the ground.
Five or six guys from the demolishing agency were accelerating their speed to
finish their task before the dusk.
“We are paying the property tax. BBMP has built this road for
us…..and who are you to demolish my house..???” Mr. Ray kept giving
his full effort to fight with the Government official.
No reply from any one was making Mr. Ray down in the dumps
gradually.….
“I will go to the court…..I have all property documents. If these
are unauthorized land, then where you were for last 30 years……???” …Mr. Ray
slowly fell down on the ground, his cry was becoming louder…..
Additional Director-General of Police was continuously giving
the direction to the agency guys, without giving any heed to his situation….
Hundreds were already out on the streets, some were trying to
argue with the officials and others pleading with them. Many just looked on
helplessly as the bulldozers razed down their houses.
So many families left with nowhere to go, due to the demolition
drive by the district administration on Thursday in Bangalore. They cleared the
unauthorized occupation on the Sarakki Lake Bed recently, but where were these
conscious government officials while the encroachments happened?
And why BBMP (Bruhat
Bengaluru Mahanagara Palike) constructed a road for these people on
the lake bed without looking at the authorized and unauthorized papers? Do we
have any answer…? I doubt…
No comments on these authorized and unauthorized issues right now,
but as human being, I wish good life for all the homeless now.
