Action Taken Baste On Deeds Not Caste says Naqvi on Jahangirpuri
Mukhtar Abbas Naqvi, a Union Minister, endorsed the Jahangirpuri bulldozer operation on Wednesday, claiming that the perpetrators were being identified not by their ‘castes,’ but by their ‘deeds.’ Naqvi chastised the Opposition for shielding the unlawful encroachers from the law. Those aiming to destabilize India’s social fabric, he claimed, have been revealed again and again over.
“Many individuals are always attempting to damage the nation’s fabric, cause harm to it, halt India’s growth, and destabilize the social climate. The persons standing beside them have been revealed on several occasions. Everyone in society has to know who is responsible for this. These individuals have been turned down on several occasions “Mukhtar Abbas Naqvi expressed his thoughts on the subject.
Adding to that, “Is it possible to profit from encroachment? Those days are over for those who thought that. Encroachers will face the law. The acts, not the caste, are used to identify a perpetrator.”
The demolition campaign in Jahangirpuri has been halted by the Supreme Court.
The North Delhi Municipal Corporation began razing illegally built dwellings and stores in the violence-plagued Jahangirpuri today as part of a two-day anti-encroachment campaign. “The special joint encroachment removal action program comprising Public Works Department (PWD), local body, Local cops and the Works/Maintenance Dept, Department Of Health, Sanitation Department, Veterinary Department and Enforcement Cell of North DMC is to be resolved in Jahangiripuri area,” according to a letter from the NDMC to the Northwest Deputy Commissioner of Police (DCP) on Tuesday.
This destruction activity was initiated just days after stone-pelting injured eight police officers and one civilian during the Hanuman Jayanti parade. In connection with the April 16 riots, at least 23 persons have been detained. North Delhi Mayor Raja Iqbal Singh, on the other hand, claims that the drive is being carried out because residents of the region have complained about road blockages and traffic concerns, rather than in reprisal for the Shobha Yatra violence. The demolitions proceeded until the demolitions were halted by a Supreme Court injunction.
The NDMC mayor remarked after the Supreme Court ordered a halt to the demolition effort, “We will respect the SC ruling and take measures appropriately.”

The Drive
In a major boost to public health, 1,292 citizens were screened during a free cancer detection drive conducted across various health centers by the Navi Mumbai Municipal Corporation (NMMC).

Beyond basic checkups, civic health teams provided guidance on early warning signs, lifestyle risks, and the importance of routine health monitoring. Citizens identified with potential symptoms received direct referrals to municipal hospitals for further testing and subsidized follow-up treatment.
Community health drives play an essential role in saving lives by catching illnesses before they progress. By making preventive care accessible to all, NMMC continues to strengthen healthcare infrastructure across the city.

Navi Mumbai Gets New High-Tech Hospital with a Heart
Meta Multispeciality Hospital in Ghansoli opens with free care for newborn baby girls and elderly citizens.
The Hospital
Access to quality healthcare just got a major boost for local families. Meta Multispeciality Hospital officially opened its doors in Ghansoli Sector 4, promising state-of-the-art medical technology alongside a deeply human approach to community care.
The facility was inaugurated by Forest Minister and Palghar Guardian Minister Ganesh Naik, who toured the premises to inspect its emergency wards, OPD facilities, and advanced diagnostic machinery. Speaking to attendees, Naik praised the hospital’s leadership for prioritizing affordable, high-quality treatment for middle-class households.
What sets the hospital apart, however, is its landmark social welfare initiative announced during the opening by community leader Sagar Chougule and hospital administrator Dr. Swarna Shelke:
- Free Maternity Care for Girl Child Deliveries: To celebrate and encourage the birth of female children, the hospital will waive all delivery charges for mothers giving birth to baby girls.
- Free OPD Services for Seniors: Outpatient consultations will be entirely free for senior citizens aged 65 and above.
“Healthcare shouldn’t feel like an unbearable financial burden,” said Dr. Shelke. “Our primary goal is to bring modern medical infrastructure within reach of every everyday citizen.”
With monsoon-related illnesses on the rise, the team also plans to host free community health camps to catch seasonal infections early. By blending modern medicine with genuine community compassion, the new hospital aims to build a healthier, safer Navi Mumbai.
