before
after
once upon a time there was a playground just off the heavy traffic of akurli road in kandivili east. that was before it was declared 'encroached upon' by the sra and some local thug with the right connections (note balasaheb directing the debacle in the name board.)
today its a really tall very ugly building in the middle of a extremely dense street. now where will the shiv senas shahka goondas get their daily workout i wonder.. too bad they did not think this through before shamelessly giving away an open space to the builders lobby.
part of a survey that i am carrying out for Citispace.
you should see some of the other so called playgrounds that have been returned to the city - the purported benefit of the scheme for the 'greater common good'. small little strips where there were once gardens and/or well maintained jogging tracks, etc which can be accessed only from the sale component that the builder gets to sell in exchange for housing the poor people.
ridiculous this blatant corruption.
feel like walking around holding a placard about it...
