Women from Dharavi on BJP, Adani and Lok Sabha Elections 2024 | Behanbox Chaupal | Mumbai Elections

Описание: As Mumbai goes to poll in the Phase 5 of Lok Sabha Election 2024, our Senior Correspondent Priyanka Tupe visited Dharavi that falls under Mumbai’s South Central Lok Sabha Constituency to speak to the women living here about their issues and their expectations with the elections.

In this latest episode of #BehanboxChaupal, local women politicians, activists and residents of Dharavi share their thoughts on Dharavi Redevelopment plan and the ways in which it will impact their lives.

The Union and Maharashtra State government have promised to make Dharavi a developed industrial hub as it is home to numerous small-scale industries and its proximity to Mumbai airport and business hubs. The residents will be moved to new buildings on a portion of allotted railway land. Currently, a survey is underway in Dharavi to identify eligible residents. The Congress has accused the BJP of “sponsoring” Gautam Adani’s Dharavi Land Development plan and Uddhav Thackeray has alleged that the project has been handed to the Adani group under favourable terms. ‘Dharavi Bachao Andolan’ is protesting against Adani.
