Air India Colony residents fight eviction threat

In Mumbai's bustling landscape, amidst the towering skyscrapers and bustling streets, lies a community fighting against the tide of eviction. Air India Colony, home to 350 families, stands as a symbol of resistance as bulldozers loom on the horizon, threatening to erase their homes and livelihoods.

For decades, Air India Colony has been a sanctuary for its residents, providing affordable housing in a city known for its exorbitant real estate prices. However, the looming specter of redevelopment has cast a shadow over the community's future, leaving its inhabitants in a state of uncertainty and fear.

The battle for Air India Colony began when the government, citing redevelopment plans, issued eviction notices to its residents. Despite assurances of alternative accommodations, many remain skeptical, fearing displacement from the only place they've called home.

The heart-wrenching stories of the colony's residents paint a vivid picture of their struggles. Families who have lived here for generations now face the harsh reality of being uprooted, their memories and connections severed in the name of progress.

Resistance against eviction has been met with legal battles and protests, as residents refuse to relinquish their rights without a fight. Their resilience and determination have garnered support from activists and sympathizers, who stand in solidarity with their cause.
