A 59-year-old tribal man, Balu Rama Kambade, passed away after being found inside his hut during an anti-encroachment drive by CIDCO in Kharghar, Navi Mumbai on October 27. The Kambade family is refusing to accept his body until a case is registered under the Scheduled Castes and Scheduled Tribes (Prevention of Atrocities) Act. The family claims that the demolition operation contributed to his death.
However, CIDCO has denied any link between the death and its eviction drive, stating that the hut in which Kambade lived was not targeted during the operation. The cause of death remains unclear as no connection has been established between the incident and the demolition drive. The family's demand for a case has heightened tensions in the area, with local leaders and residents blaming the planning authority for the man's demise.
