Video of Protest In Vadodara As Muslim Woman Gets Flat Under CM Housing Scheme

The Motnath Residency Housing Cooperative Housing Society Limited in Gujarat’s Harni district have been protesting against the allotment of a government flat to a Muslim woman. The woman, a government employee is facing discrimination as residents claim the housing complex is Hindu-dominated.

The society built under the Mukhyamantri Awas Yojana scheme for low-income groups has 461 houses. The residents have been living in the society for six to seven years. The residents who are predominantly Hindu claim the allocation of the house to the Muslim family is a violation of the “Disturbance Act” being in effect in the



area.

Pertinently, the Gujarat government has introduced the “Disturbed Areas Act” in the state that mandates property deals must be approved by the district collector in areas marked as ‘disturbed’, perceived as a tool to segregate Hindus and Muslims.
