“We have demanded that the area be increased, and Fadnavis was positive about it,” said Waikar. Officials present at the meeting said that Fadnavis also reviewed pending SRA projects and said the SRA department must take action against the developers, who have not completed projects in time, leaving slum dwellers in the lurch. “A decision to amend the current SRA Act, to ensure faster approvals and completion of projects, was also taken in the meeting,” said an official.
