The Maharashtra government has withdrawn the lease of 33 acres in Aarey Milk Colony, previously allotted to Bamco Tech Private Limited for slum rehabilitation, following a Bombay High Court ruling that prohibits construction in this eco-sensitive and green zone. The court's July 11, 2025 verdict upheld restrictions under the Environment Ministry's 2016 notification and the BMC's Development Plan 2014-2034. Activists emphasize preserving Aarey for afforestation and suggest relocating rehabilitation efforts outside the area.
