Mumbai’s Catholics are very worried on two counts. One pertains to the planned Special Economic Zone (SEZ) in the Gorai, Manori, Uttan belt. The second has to do with the acquisition of the Sahar village by the Mumbai International Airports Ltd (MIAL).The residents of the proposed SEZ are mainly East Indian Christians. They are farmers and fishermen. The residents of Gorai have already suffered much due to the activities of Esselworld, which has caused massive ecological damage.Now, the same group intends setting up a leisure and entertainment SEZ in this area, for the hedonistic rich and powerful, at the cost of the lives of the residents. If the Maharashtra government fails to see the writing on the wall, the situation in Gorai and Sahar could turn worse than Nandigram.
