Dharavi redevelopment plan: What are the opinions of govt?


Mayanagari is a settlement of narrow streets, garbage heaps and slums in the middle of mumbai where about 10 lakh people live in a very small space. This is the biggest slum in Asia. Prior to the elections, the topic of "Dharavi," Asia's largest slum colony, came up once more. It is now political to discuss the Dharavi reconstruction project. Redevelopment plans for Dharavi are opposed by thousands of local families as well as the opposition parties. Locals worry that they might become homeless if their homes are taken away for redevelopment.

The Dharavi Redevelopment Project Private Limited (DRPPL) official spokesperson stated in a statement that the tender was handled fairly and in accordance with the regulations. The tender terms were made public during the state's uddhav thackeray administration. These prerequisites remain unchanged. The representative went on to state that it is untrue to say that the industrialist has profited. It is regrettable that incorrect information regarding the initiative is being circulated. We want to stress that each family in this place will receive a brand-new home in Dharavi. Houses will be given under the Rental Housing Policy in accordance with the terms of the tender.

Meanwhile, uddhav Thackeray's government, which held office from november 2019 to june 2022, finalized the tender for the Dharavi Redevelopment Project, according to mumbai BJP President ashish Shelar. The rules and terms of the Dharavi development tender were formulated during the tenure of uddhav thackeray as the state's chief minister.
