Maha: Govt approves Dharavi project master plan

Mumbai, May 28 (UNI) The Maharashtra government on Wednesday approved the master plan for the Dharavi redevelopment project during a review meeting held at Sayhadri guest house, which was attended by Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis and senior officials.
The Dharavi Redevelopment Plan (DRP) is a joint venture between the Adani group and the Maharashtra government to redevelop Asia’s largest slum cluster, home to nearly 60,000 families.
However, the project faces opposition as residents have raised concerns over the survival of small-scale manufacturing and industrial units in Dharavi.
“Dharavi should be developed in an environmentally friendly and integrated manner while preserving its original concept,” said Fadnavis, stating that the top priority of the project should be the rehabilitation of local artisans and those running small-scale businesses.
