Delhi Explores Dharavi Model to Tackle Slum Crisis
2025-07-01
Delhi Chief Minister Rekha Gupta is considering Mumbai’s Dharavi redevelopment model to address the housing needs of 50 lakh slum dwellers across over 675 clusters.
The Dharavi plan involves multi-storey housing and upgraded civic facilities but hinges on large contiguous land parcels—something Delhi lacks. Experts argue Delhi’s slums are fragmented, with fewer households per site.
Activists stress in-situ upgrades and services like water, electricity, and sanitation over relocation. They warn of private developer-led projects prioritising profits. Alternatives like rental housing and micro-loans for ownership are being discussed as more inclusive solutions.
