Delhi's Majnu Ka Teela Faces Eviction as Hindu Refugees from Pakistan Receive Notices Amidst Luxury Developments

In a heart-wrenching turn of events, Hindu refugees from Pakistan living in Majnu ka Teela, Delhi, are facing an imminent threat of eviction. The Delhi Development Authority (DDA) recently announced plans to remove shanties from the western bank of the area, leaving approximately 250 families in a state of distress. These families, who fled religious persecution in Pakistan, have been living in makeshift shelters and are now uncertain about their future.

The eviction notice, issued by the DDA, ordered the refugees to shift to Geeta Colony and three different rain baseras (shelters) in Dwarka. However, many of the affected families find these alternatives inadequate, especially considering their family situations. Moreover, the manner in which the notice was served has been criticized, as it was simply stuck in one place without directly informing the residents.

Interestingly, while the DDA has focused on removing shanties, the notice also mentions ‘etc.’ after the word ‘shanties.’ Upon investigation, it was found that several prominent structures, including buildings, spa centers, and businesses, are also encroaching upon the Yamuna floodplains in the area, but have not been targeted for removal.

The situation becomes more glaring when compared to the nearby Tibetan Market, where numerous businesses operate in violation of safety standards. Despite being situated in the floodplain area, these establishments have not faced similar eviction threats. The selective action by the authorities has raised concerns about discrimination and unfair treatment of the refugee community.

Additionally, the presence of a gurdwara and educational centers within the settlement adds another layer of complexity to the issue. While the focus remains on removing shanties, structures associated with religious and educational activities are at risk of being bulldozed, further exacerbating the plight of the refugees.

Speaking to the media, Sukhnandan, the head of the refugee settlement, highlighted the similarities between the hardships faced in Pakistan and the challenges encountered in Delhi. He emphasized the need for government intervention and pleaded for mercy on behalf of the affected families.

As the eviction looms over Majnu ka Teela, the future of these Hindu refugees hangs in the balance. Their struggle for survival and dignity continues, as they appeal for justice and assistance from the authorities.
