Dear Sirs,
This is in reference to the various orders by the Supreme Court on the matter of illegal hawkers, as mentioned below.This is also in reference to this reporthttp://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/city/mumbai/BMC-cracks-down-on-illegal-hawkers-collects-6-L-fine/articleshow/7175810.cms
It is very strange that instead of an objective of keeping Mumbais' carriageways, foot paths and other public spaces free from unauthorised and illegal hawkers, MCGM only thinks of collection of revenue.In other words, these hawkers will be allowed to continue occupying spaces, so long as MCGM revenue is not affected, that, too, a figure of Rs.6 lakhs collected from 400 illegal hawkers is seen as some achievement.Though from the ground situation in K West Ward, none of them would be from this area, and in any case, 400 hawkers is not even the proverbial tip of the ice berg.This is totally against any justice to Citizens.And why will the drive continue only till the new year.It is in any case, obligatory, mandatory, statutory and now, compulsory by Supreme Court order, as below, to keep unauthorised and illegal hawkers away.You are kindly advised to follow the Supreme Court order as below to the letter and spirit.Thanqx.

BMC cracks down on illegal hawkers, collects 6 L fine
TNN, Dec 28, 2010, 07.27am IST
Mumbai: The BMC is cashing in on the festivities to speed up its action on unauthorized hawkers and vendors in the city. Since December 23, the civic body has taken action against more than 400 hawkers in the western and eastern suburbs. A total of Rs 6 lakh was collected from the hawkers as fine. "This was part of our ongoing drive against unauthorized hawking. We will continue to crackdown on such vendors till the New Year," said a senior civic official. According to BMC officials, most of the hawkers were selling food items cooked in unhygienic conditions that looked to be causing a risk to the health of Mumbaikars. "Most of the food was being cooked in unhygienic conditions and the fact that people tend to eat out during festive season poses a risk to the lives of lakhs of citizen," an official said.

Dear Sirs,This is in reference to the various orders by the Supreme Court on the matter of illegal hawkers, in particular, the latest one as enclosed below for your ready and immediate reference.>>>You are also fully aware of the original orders on Non - Hawking Zones as stated in "the Restrictions and Conditions by which the hawkers will do their business laid down for Non - Hawking Zones" in the December 9, 2003 Order. They are as follows:" [3] There should be no hawking within 100 metres from any place of worship, holy shrine, educational institutions and hospitals or within 150 metres from any municipalor other markets or from any railway station. There should be no hawking on foot - bridges and over bridges. Further certain areas may be permitted to be kept free of hawkers for security reasons. However outside places of worship hawkers can bepermitted to sell items required by the devotees for offering to the deity or for placing in the place of worship e.g. flowers, sandalwood, candles, agarbattis, coconuts etc."" [9] No hawking will be permitted on any street which is less than 8 metres in width. Further the hawkers also have to comply with Development Control Rules thus there can be no hawking in areas which are exclusively residential and where trading andcommercial activity is prohibited. Thus hawking cannot be permitted on roads and pavements which do not have a shopping line;">>>The latest order is not only specific, explicit, but clear and non ambiguous, that illegal hawkers have no opportunity to have any stay on their activities until the new hawking policy may be finalised.Effective and permanent action has to be taken as per the latest orders, which you are well aware.You are therefore kindly advised to take immediate action on the same in K Ward, at the following places, inclusive, but not exhaustive01 In and around Andheri Station area, and on the foot over bridges connecting West and East, on the roads immediately outside, S V Road, which are all within 150 metres of the station, etc02 In and around Vile Parle Station area, and on the foot over bridges connecting West and East, on the roads imediately outside, S V Road, which are all within 150 metres of the station, etcIn any case, you are aware, entire Vile Parle West is a declared non hawking zone03 Junction of MM Chowk, SV Raod, Lallubhai Road, illegal food stalls, and others, occupy the corners, dirty the place, wash utensils on the road, etc.04 Illegal food and other stalls near and around NMMIS, Mithibai, Bhaidas, etc., Juhu shopping complex on VL MEHTA Road05 Illegal stalls on both sides of SV Road and footpath from Gokhale Bridge towards South and Amboli naka towards North06 Illegal stalls on both sides of Church Road, Seven Bungalows07 Illegal stalls, and illegal shop extensions on Irla Road, of hawkers and shops08 Illegal food and other stalls on DJ Marg, Vile Parle, and in various inner roads of Vile Parle West such as BP Vashi Road, etc09 Illegal food and other stalls on both sides of SV Road and Link Road, towards Jogeshwari and northern limit of K West, etcAll the above, apart from the illegality, cause great traffic obstacles, health hazards, garbage nuisance, etcYour office is called upon to immediately and effectively, and permanently, clear the said encroachments and etc., from the above areas, apart from the numbers of all other places not mentioned, where such illegal hawkers are proliferating.The area below, near and around Gokhale flyover bridge, is in filthy, dirty, dark, unhygienic condition since years.Superficial assurances have been given by your office to specific representations by LAPARA ALM, and others, highlighted in the media also any number of times, but this place remains in abysmal condition.Kindly clean the place immediately.
Kindly also relocate the solid waste, garbage Clean Up ! chowkie, located on South West end of railway platform, which creates foul smell, due to collection of MCGM garbage compactors and MCGM dumpers, affecting thousands of residents and passengers going to and returning from Andheri West station.This also creates totally unacceptable traffic jams, and endagers pedestrians due to haphazrd movement of such vehicles.Also, huge numbers unauthorised water tankers are randomly and illegally parked near there due to two MCGM valves allowed for MCGM water tankers.All this creates innumerable problems for all residents and passengers, pedestrians, etc., not to mention that it give an impression that K West is under drought conditions even after a very good Monsoon season 2010.Kindly relocate this filling point.
You kind attention is also drawn to the sweeping, cleaning, collection, of solid waste in Ward K West area which is not being done effectively, nor efficiently.The same should be done with proper vigour and especially after mid night, to take care of the enormous litter generated by padyatris going to Shri Siddhi Vinayak who do not care about the environment nor the simple credo
Svachchtha Hee Vidhaatha Hai
- Aur Jo Nahin Samajhtha
- Tho Padhe Likhe Phir Bhi Anadi
- Bahar Se Aayaa Ek Khiladi
- Clean Up Our Land
Your immediate and positive action in this will be appreciated.Thanqx.
