Dharavi Awaits Poll Results to Define its Future

Deccan Chronicle  

Hyderabad: A day before the Maharashtra Assembly election results, people in Dharavi are worried about their future. Dharavi’s small houses and one-room factories are now marked with red ink, signalling impending change even as the ‘Dharavi Bachao Andolan’ has gained momentum. Within five months, the Dharavi Redevelopment Project was awarded to Gautam Adani's company, with 80 per cent of the project under Adani Corporation through a joint venture with the Maharashtra government. Advocate Raju Korad of the ‘Dharavi Bachao Andolan’ called it a betrayal, reflecting residents' discontent over the redevelopment plan. In the Dharavi Assembly, Eknath Shinde’s Shiv Sena candidate Rajesh Khander faces the Congress’ Jyoti Gaikwad of the Maha Vikas Aghadi.
