Bhau Daji Lad museum caught in handover row
A museum city has been denied access to for over a year is at centre of
controversy as trust members say they know nothing of ‘handover’ of
civic property to their managing trustee
"Everything is being done according to the rules and the earlier
resolution of the corporation. I will be taking care of the objects on
behalf of the trust," said Mehta. In response to the controversy, the
BMC issued a press statement on Monday, stating that orders were issued
to let Mehta "take over the artifacts and the museum on behalf of the
Trust only, not in her individual capacity." Interestingly even the
mayor, who is chairman of the trust, was unaware of the BMC’s deal with
Mehta.
