In a major relief for residents of Juhu (DN Nagar) and Dahisar, the Maharashtra government has decided to relocate the high-power radar stations in these areas. For years, these radars have blocked redevelopment and new construction, but the move is expected to remove long-standing hurdles and allow old, dilapidated buildings to be redeveloped.
On December 10, mid-day reported that about 15,000 residents from nearly 200 Juhu housing societies plan to boycott the upcoming BMC elections. These societies lie within 500 metres of an Army wireless station, where redevelopment is banned due to security rules.
