- The joint venture led by Adani won the $619 million bid in 2023 and plans to transform the 240-hectare slum into a modern city hub.
- Only residents who lived in Dharavi before 2000 are to receive free homes, while at least 580 acres are needed for about 700,000 people deemed ineligible.
- The joint venture applied to several local and federal agencies for additional land but has secured none so far, SVR Srinivas said, because those agencies have their own plans.
- The project began with a survey in March, and its backers aim to finish construction within seven years, while Srinivas expects delays without land.
Yes, without land, the project cannot take place, so that is a very critical factor for doing the project on time.— SVR Srinivas, head of the Dharavi Redevelopment Authority, on land acquisition in Mumbai (as quoted by Reuters).
