Nagar Palika put forth its side
Seeing the growing resentment of the people of the society, Nilesh Parmar, Executive Engineer of Affordable Housing of Nagar Palika, has put forth his side in the matter. He said that the documents of this building were passed in 2018. At that time the Disturbed Act was not applicable. Since there is no allocation on the basis of religion in government schemes, the Nagar Palika has no responsibility in this. He also said that if the local residents come together and find a solution, then it will be better.
