IRCDUC

We are a community-centric hub designed to educate and empower the deprived urban communities.

[IRCDUC @ircduc]

IRCDUC began in 2010 with a few committed individuals standing against forced evictions. By 2018, it had grown into a full-fledged organisation.

Through evidence-based advocacy, we continue to influence policies.

Grateful for the journey and all who made it possible.

In Sept 2023, a @ircduc report on the @WorldBank financed housing project (MUDP & TNUDP) in Tamil Nadu recommends, to set up a high-level committee to monitor the progress of the issuance of sale deeds & "patta"

@CMOTamilnadu @TNUHDB_Official

Report: https://t.co/3FLTCOl8kL

[Vanessa Peter @VanessaPeter16]

Inordinate delay in the issuance of ‘sale deeds’ and ‘pattas’ for the rightsholders of the @WorldBank -funded MUDP and TNUDP even after 3 decades. Urging @CMOTamilnadu to set up a high-level committee to monitor the progress of the issuance of sale deeds and ‘patta’.

People are protesting on the #EnnoreGasLeak

Necessary action need to be taken on the company which is responsible for the #GasLeak

We strongly condemn for this action. These issues such as Oil spilling & Gas leak are NOT accidental.

The recent floods in Chennai unleashed by Cyclone Michaung, have yet again exposed
the vulnerability of the resettled families in and around Chennai. There is an emerging need for finalising R&R policy

It would be great if the 162 relief centres of #GCC list are out on public domain as it will be much helpful to persons living at street situation and others who are in needy.
