Will CM solve PAPs’ problems?
By Dinesh Kamath
PANVEL: When the project affected persons (PAPs) of infrastructural projects in JNPT and other areas in Raigad district had agitated against the state government for not resolving their long-pending demands, chief minister Prithviraj Chavan has assured them that he would soon solve their problems soonest.
The problems faced by PAPs are regarding regularization of their houses, allotment of development plots and other issues. The government is discussing this issue with various people to arrive at a right solution.
The chief minister also holds the urban development portfolio. This can make it possible for him to figure out a rehabilitation formula on the basis of schemes implemented by the central government.
Chavan had made this promise when he had attended the function at Navi Mumbai which was organized by the Maharashtra Koli Mahasangh, a body of fishermen. The event was arranged to thank Chavan for solving fishermen’s major problem relating to diesel. Now what remains to be seen is whether Chavan will manage to solve the problems faced by PAPs too?
