The cabinet has authorised the rehabilitation of hazardous buildings in Ulhasnagar, a satellite town of Mumbai, according to Maharashtra Chief Minister Eknath Shinde.

Many of the several lakh residents of Ulhasnagar, a municipal corporation in Thane district, moved there from Sindh after the partition. The township has additionally made headlines over the years due to a profusion of unlawful development.

“The cabinet has today taken a decision about Ulhasnagar where lakhs of people were living in dangerous conditions. The cabinet has decided for development of Ulhasnagar,” Shinde added.

Between 2014 until 2022, Shinde served as the guardian minister for Thane under the Devendra Fadanvis and Uddhav Thackeray administrations.

Shrikant Shinde, his son, represents Kalyan, which includes Ulhasnagar, in the Lok Sabha.
