Action should be taken in the case of misuse of National Herald land – Anil Galgali demands CM Devendra Fadnavis

Mumbai, Mumbai – The government land given to Associated Journals Limited (AJL) in Survey No. 341 in Bandra (East) area in 1983 for the office of “National Herald”, Nehru Library and Research Centre has been misused, the investigation report of the Gautam Chatterjee Committee has revealed. In this backdrop, RTI activist Anil Galgali has written a letter to Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis demanding immediate action.
The investigation report says that 83 thousand square feet of construction has been done on the land, including 11 thousand square feet of basement and additional use of 9 thousand square feet of upper floor, which is in violation of the rules. As per the rules, only 15 percent commercial use was allowed, but this has also been violated. In addition, additional land allocated for the hostel was also given to the institution ignoring the rules.
In 2001, under a controversial order of the Revenue Department, the leased land was converted into direct ownership and interest of ₹ 2.78 crore was waived, which the committee has declared against the rules and recommended its review.
Anil Galgali has made the following demands to the Chief Minister through a letter. Legal action should be initiated to take back the said land to the government.
The waived interest amount and additional penalty should be recovered. A hostel for backward class students should be started on one floor of the building. Instructions should be given to start a library and research centre on the remaining land. Gautam Chatterjee’s investigation report should be made public.
Anil Galgali said, “It is very important to ensure fair justice in this matter and use the government land in the public interest.”
