At a time when chief minister of Maharashtra Vilasrao Deshmukh is extending a red carpet to Tata Motors to set up the Nano car plant in Maharashtra, the Mumbai police is accused of turning a blind eye to acts by anti-social elements in stopping a survey work carried out by an industrial house on its own land in Gorai.
On Sunday, the Essel group’s survey work on their property was stopped by certain anti-social elements in Gorai. The instigators and the men behind the attack were allegedly encroachers, builders of unauthorised resorts on government land and owners of pubs without valid permits.
According to sources, they managed to assemble a mob of 400 to 500 people — mostly women — and attacked the survey team, manhandled them, held them hostage for nearly seven hours and the police of Gorai were helpless till additional reinforcements were rushed in.
