MHADA States Mumbai Football Association Has No Legal Rights Over Bandra Ground
The Maharashtra Housing and Area Development Authority (MHADA) informed the Bombay High Court that the Mumbai Football Association (MFA) holds no permanent or legal rights over the Neville D'Souza football ground at Bandra Reclamation. MHADA stated MFA's permission to use the 8,450-square-metre plot was temporary and expired in September 2024. The authority seeks dismissal of MFA's plea challenging the proposed change in the plot's reservation from a recreation ground to a convention and exhibition centre, noting no final government approval has been granted yet.
