In Allahabad, houses of families living on plots called the Anglo Indian Domiciled Trust Property (AIDTP) are set to be destroyed. The land is being converted into a parking space under the Smart City project.

Around 25 families belonging to the micro-minority Anglo Indian community in Allahabad will become homeless in October. While people will be busy celebrating Navratri, houses of several Anglo Indians will be demolished by the Uttar Pradesh government in the name of beautification for Kumbh Mela and the Smart City project.
