Jewish centre shifted to new location

Uncertainty hangs over whether the five-storey building in a Colaba bylane will ever be renovated and restored to its old lively self before the tragedy struck on the night of November 26, 2008. “We have temporarily shifted to a new location. (9769060840) [e-mail],” reads the board in English and Hebrew at the Nariman House, also known as the Chabad House.

Members of the community who contacted authorities on the phone number mentioned on the board were called to the new premises and provided accommodation after a thorough screening. “Authorities are yet to take a decision on whether to rebuild Nariman House or shift it permanently to the other place,” Rabbi Yossi Cohen, the current in-charge of the Chabad House, said.
