SC: Three years and nothing has happened with the projects because of the slums.

SC: Do you have any policy, Mr Natraj, he's saying you do

ASG: As per my instructions, Railways doesn't do rehabilitation.

SC: It's on record that Railways doesn't have rehabilitation policy and Mr Nanavati is saying there is.

Gonsalves: Can you keep it on the 20th?

SC: Monday. We are going close to vacation then it'll get pushed over.
We are keeping it on Monday.
