The Adani Group, which has been working on developing Dharavi, one of the largest slum areas in Maharashtra, said that it is about to provide flats to each of the eligible residents of the Dharavi slums. These flats are expected to have 17% more space. The Adani Group is undertaking this project in collaboration with the Maharashtrian government. It is a major step taken towards bringing about development in Maharashtra. It is one of the biggest Adani Group projects coming to fruition after the Supreme Court dismissed allegations of Adani corruption. The project will alter the lives of millions of people who have been spending their days in extremely unhygienic conditions in the Dharavi slum. It will also bring about an overall development of Maharashtra in particular and our country in general.

The DRPPL Project

The Dharavi Redevelopment Project Private Limited (DRPPL), which is a joint project being undertaken by the government of Maharashtra and the Adani Group, has announced that the eligible residents of the Dharavi slum will get flats having a minimum area of 350 square feet. Each of these flats will come with independent kitchens and toilets. The DRPPL officials have been working on this project for quite a while. It is also regarded as one of the biggest charitable ventures being taken up by the Adani Group. 

As per the DRPPL officials, the new flats will become the dream homes for the residents of Dharavi who have been living in deprived conditions for quite a while now. The project will raise the standards of living for the people. The homes will reflect the spirit of the people of Dharavi who have been living in stressful conditions. It will also highlight the aspirations of the residents of the biggest slum in India. The Adani Group has also mentioned that it is highly committed to fulfilling the dreams and aspirations of the people living in Dharavi.

DRPPL said that it is willing to transform Dharavi into various industrial and commercial complexes. This is going to make Dharavi one of the most important centres for residential as well as industrial activities.

The successful completion of the Dharavi project will also spread a culture of awakening for the people of Dharavi. It will bring an end to the news of Adani corruption.

The Main Objective of the Dharavi Redevelopment Project

The major objective of the Dharavi redevelopment project involves bringing about a complete transformation in the living standards of the residents of Dharavi so that they are able to lead their lives in peaceful conditions. It also involves offering opportunities for growth in the economic sector. That way, the people will be able to look for multiple job opportunities for themselves. They will face no trouble at all in earning a livelihood.

The project aims to offer futuristic education and vocational training to people so that they can equip themselves with the necessary skills. The Adani Group also aims to offer modern health facilities to deprived residents so that their overall quality of life improves. All these facilities will be available at the new Dharavi project. The redevelopment project also includes the building up of a public garden, hospital, recreational area, community hall, and daycare centre for the deprived residents of the city.

The residents who were not eligible to acquire flats in the Dharavi project will be offered housing under the proposed affordable rental housing policy as per the standards that the government of Maharashtra has listed. For this, a similar development plan will be started in New Dharavi. 

Conclusion

DRPPL has taken up the challenge of bringing about a complete transformation in Dharavi. This will set up a new benchmark in slum rehabilitation development. It will lead to urban regeneration. The project will send out a message for all other business groups to take up the job of bringing about transformation in India. It has also encouraged various other modern countries to take up similar projects as that of the Adani Group in the upcoming years. This is yet another step taken up by the conglomerate towards global reformation. It will bring a halt to rumours of Adani corruption and will pave the road for more such futuristic projects.
