The Room With A View ... Falcon Villa Chapel Road
In 2001 when this building was built allegedly on a plot that I am told was a one plus one structure belonging to one of the Falcons with Reddy builder ..the lawyer a Muslim lady living at Falcon Village showed me the picture of that old structure ..
The complainant also a Falcon wrote a post about this illegal building that it was choking the gutters causing unhygienic environment to her property ,,she sent this to Hon PM Mr Narendra Modiji .on his page in 2016 ..
She had got the details from the RTI ..and her main intention was to get this illegal structure demolished ..I only feel sorry fo the residents who got gypped conned ..why did H ward building officials allow this building to come up in the first place ..and Mr Reddy had already come under the scanner one of the buildings opp Kalpana Medical Bandra Bazar was demolished too for being illegal.
I knew Mr Reddy he was a Municipal contractor and when he was constructing the illegal building near Kalpana Medical Bazar Road he was trying give me a shop for my fashion store as surety for a loan of Rs 5 lacs ..I was not interested nor did I have that kind of money....and I think this Falcon builder Reddy is the same guy .. he was later I saw moving around in a white Merck too.
The residents of the demolished Falcon Villa are sleeping at our Tennis court and using the MET toilets young children women old ladies ..few Muslims too in the Holy Month of Ramzan.
The Gaothan of the humble East Indians original inhabitants of Bandra was robbed usurped by politician builder nexus ,, demolishing old East Indian bungalows giving them peanuts as compensation and thus in the late 80 s 90 s began repair permission outrageously ugly 1 plus 2 edifices ..called channel buildings in collusion with the crooks in the H ward Bandra Municipality one of the channel building was my old house 21 De Monte Street Kamla Bai Sadan.. the builder of this channel repair permission is a famous builder now.
Most of Bandra Bazar Chapel Road and other Gaothan areas were blatantly destroyed thanks to the lenient silent view of Congress satraps ..they did not care at all..The last stand of the East Indians did not work they were pushed further to Uttan Vasai Nalla Sopara .. The Church watched hands folded helpless by the biblical edict Render To Caesar what belongs to Caesar and to God what belongs to God ,,
Most of the famous Christian lawyers had the rich builders politicians as their clients so the East Indian residents pride honor could do nothing .. they just gave up the fight ,,
Than the Wheel of Politics turned Congress was booted out ..Congress Free Bandra bough in BJP progress and development ,, and yet the poor owners of houses in Bandra are at the mercy of the mandarins of H Ward ,,
Will the officials of H ward who allowed these illegal buildings to come up 20 years back and who did nothing but abetted in this illegal construction activity ..be taken to task by the erstwhile Government of Mr Devendra Fadnavis ,, will the house owners get their money back or will they get justice ,,
I reiterate I am not a social activist I dont belong to any political party but yes I am a Bandraite not by birth but by choice ,,,so I shot their video images to reach out to all of you ..
Will The Government do something to stop corruption in this low income building sector ,,
The local representatives are silent ,, even God above is Silent .
Tears on the Soul of Bandra ..

The Falcons Fight
Falcons
Among themselves
Fight with all their
Might but it is residents
Who suffer deprived of
Their Human Rights.
Once they had a home
In this building now
Homeless feel their plight
A 20 year old structure
The BMC found out it is
Illegal height of height
Why did they not stop
The illegal construction
Money has no color
Black or white.. The rogue
Elements of BMC should be
Booked on hindsight
The greatest corruption in
Bandra gaothan happened
During the Congress Rule
Repair Permission Building
On stilts a horrible sight
The local representatives
Congress Satraps gave a
Free hand builder politician
Nexus destroyed the East
Indian ambiance heritage
Overnight...
Who is Wrong who is Right
Injustice harassment
Selective bias by the BMC
For the minorities no respite
Sab ka Sath Sab Ka Vikas
Progress Development takes
A back seat.. God save us from
Dark Ages lead us into Light.

The Rise and Fall of Falcon Villa
When it was built in collusion
With rogue Municipal officers
And the builder involved
Now after 20 mystery is solved
Marked as illegal the builder
The rogue Municipal officers
Of all sins absolved..
The poor residents who paid
Money now rendered homeless
Sweat Blood Tears in the drain
Ruthlessly dissolved..

Do not want to get involved..

If it was the slums their vote bank

The Tragic Tale of Falcon Villa Chapel Road
The Demolition of Falcon Villa Chapel Road
This building is about 20 years old and has been found to be illegal by the Bandra Municipality ..so all the 20 flats in the building facing our Tennis Court will be demolished.
The walls of the second floor were demolished yesterday.
The residents are shattered and these are poor folks unlike Campa Cola Worli.

Some bought the flats for 35 lacs I was told there are lot of conspiracy theories floating around a man told me that somebody was blackmailing the residents demanding a crore but I don't know the veracity he was leaving the building heading back to his village.
His Mumbai dreams had come to an end.
I only feel why does the Municipality not have a fool proof system to check stop illegal construction much before the pillars come up.
If you take a survey of Bandra there are a lot of illegal buildings like this thanks to Municipal apathy corruption and builder politician nexus.
And the maximum illegal construction is in the slums patronised by local Netas as these are lucrative Vote Banks to win elections.

Demolished Dreams
Falcon Villa Chapel Road
Falcon Villa is a 20 year old building at Chapel Road that the Municipality has found it to be illegal so the building is being demolished bit by bit making all 20 residents homeless.
Most of them I interviewed this morning are mixed community of Muslims Christians Hindus.
One Muslim gentleman bought his flat a few months back at 50 lakhs spent a fortune on the interior it is now rubble and dust.

A Muslim single mother with 2 children is saddened to be homeless during Ramzan what worries her most is those that bought the flats 19 members should not be deprived if the building goes back to the landlord and a new builder.
I shot this video only for it's human angle even the local representatives have distanced themselves .Because of the court order nobody wants to come forward and guide them.
I shot pictured of Falcon Villa yesterday posted it on Facebook and Twitter tagging out local representatives local media and our CM Mr Devendra Fadnavis.
I hope they get help succor..
