Redevelopment plans
• There have been many plans since 1997 to redevelop Dharavi. In 2004, the cost of
redevelopment was estimated to be ₹5,000 crore
• The latest urban redevelopment plan proposed for the Dharavi area is managed by
American-trained architect Mukesh Mehta
• The plan involves the construction of 2,800,000 square metres of housing, schools,
parks and roads to serve the 57,000 families residing in the area, along with
3,700,000 square metres (40,000,000 sq ft) of residential and commercial space for
sale.
• There is still a significant local opposition to the plans, largely because existing
residents still feel 33 square metres (350 sq ft) of revised permanent alternate
accommodation per tenant is not adequate each.
• Furthermore, only those families who lived in the area before 2000 are slated for
resettlement. Concerns have also been raised by residents who fear that some of
their small businesses in the "informal" sector may not be relocated under the
redevelopment plan. Due to this opposition, a trust has been proposed called the
Dharavi Community Land Trust that will be made up of community members,
landowners, and neighborhood associations.
• Other redevelopment schemes
include the "Dharavi Masterplan"
devised by British architectural and
engineering firm Foster + Partners,
that proposes "double-height spaces
that create an intricate vertical
landscape and reflect the
community’s way of life" built-in
phases that the firm says would
"eliminate the need for transit
Dharavi camps," instead catalyzing the
rehabilitation of Dharavi "from
within."
• To make the redevelopment more
economically viable, the state
government’s plan is involving
transforming the region into a hub
for commercial and business activity.
Dharavi is close to the Bandra Kurla
Complex, which is India’s richest
business district, and one of the
richest in Asia.
