In a boost to the redevelopment of Asia’s largest slum, a newly formed association of Dharavi residents and those from surrounding areas, has expressed support for the ongoing state government-led survey of informal tenements. This survey is a preliminary step for the USD 3-billion project by the Adani group, which aims to transform the lives of approximately one million residents.

“We request the survey be conducted at the earliest possible time to ensure that the redevelopment can move forward without further delays,” the Citizen and Society Development Welfare body of Dharavi residents wrote to SVR Srinivas, CEO of the Dharavi Redevelopment Project/Slum Rehabilitation Authority (DRP/SRA) for the Government of Maharashtra, on July 30.

Representatives from Citizen and Society Development Welfare, who are leading the “Dharavi Banao Andolan” campaign, met with Srinivas and presented a memorandum requesting the expedited completion of the survey being conducted in Dharavi.
