Curiosity about how Dharavi—whose redevelopment is estimated to cost over Rs 2 lakh crore—will look post-transformation, including changes in infrastructure and the skyline, will be answered within a month. The ambitious project involves constructing 100 million square feet for rehabilitation, while Navbharat Mega Developers Private Limited (NMDPL) will have the rights to develop and sell 140 million square feet as free sale.

S V R Srinivas, chief executive officer (CEO) of the Dharavi Redevelopment Project, stated during a media interaction on Thursday that the on-ground survey is in progress and will be completed soon. “The master plan for Dharavi is expected within a month. It will provide insights into how Dharavi’s skyline—featuring new buildings, bridges, widened roads, open spaces, schools, religious places, and other amenities—will look post-redevelopment,” he added.
