Adani Group to begin Dharavi redevelopment project, say reports
India TV NewsMaharashtra: The Adani Group may begin the Dharavi redevelopment project in Mumbai and is likely to invest Rs 12,500 crore, according to a report by Mint. The Adani Group, led by industrialist Gautam Adani, had emerged as the highest bidder for the 259-hectare Dharavi Redevelopment Project and bagged it with its Rs 5,069-crore bid in the 2022 tender process. The Maharashtra government told the Bombay High Court that the 2018 tender for the Dharavi redevelopment project was cancelled and a fresh tender was issued in 2022 because of several factors, including the COVID-19 pandemic and the Ukraine-Russia war that affected financial and economic affairs. However, in July, the Maharashtra government gave a go-ahead to the Adani Group to flag off the Dharavi redevelopment project.
