URGENT PRESS STATEMENT.
RE: SILENT PROTEST RALLY ON THURSDAY 08 AUGUST AT 3.00 P.M. AT CITY SURVEY
OFFICE , OPP. BUS DEPOT, SV.ROAD, Santacruz.
Harrassment by City Survey Office while transferring Property Cards in
the name of legal heirs.
Please also see the trail email complaint which has been acknowledged
by the Chief Minister's office and passed on to the concerned Department.
The Property Owners in Mumbai are facing lot of issues, while transferring
their ancestral properties in City Survey Offices located at, Old Customs
House, Mulund, Santacruz ( West ), Goregaon. Andheri ( West ),Boravali etc.
The primary reason for such transfer being death of the owners of the
properties. Despite procedure being simple and clear, the authorities harass
the legal heirs of the deceased owner/s. Many Dalals and Middlemen operate in
such offices with the blessings of the concerned Officers of the City Survey.
As a result people are harrassed and mentally disturbed. Many a times people do
not have sufficient means to pay the amounts demanded by such corrupt officers.
Many unscrupulous Agents/Dalals and Builders take undue advantage of such
situation thereby forcing the property owners to sell the properties at
throwaway prices.
THIS IS A WAKE UP CALL GIVEN BY WATCHDOG FOUNDATION, SAVE OUR LAND [SOUL] and
Other NGO's TO ALL PROPERTY OWNERS IN MUMBAI.
We are organising a protest rally at the below mentioned address on Thursday -
8th August 2013 at 3.0 p.m. onwards.

MUNICIPAL MOTOR GARAGE COMPOUND,
OPP. SANTACRUZ BUS DEPOT,

Sir,
The facts stated below would clearly demostrate that the lands belonging to St.
Xavier Church, Vile Parle ( West ), are being usurped by builder with blessings
of City Survey Officer and SRA, and State Environmental Authority.
Kindly request you to intervene or the entire Christian community will be
forced to agitate and expose the rampant coorruption.
Regards
For Watchdog Foundation
