The Indian Railways started a mega demolition drive to demolish kachcha and shanties and pakka houses constructed along railway tracks between Surat and Udhna railway stations on Indian Railways land.
The dwellers of the slum have been seen shifting their household items. The demolition drive stayed for a day by the Gujarat High Court though the authorities began the demolition drive earlier. During the demolition drive, heavy protection of police was used to maintain peace and order.
The railway authorities, directed by two additional divisional railway managers, technical staff, engineering staff, and personnel of Surat city police, GRP, SRP and RFP, arrived at Mafatnagar, Magdoom Nagar slums and began the demolition activities on Tuesday morning.
