A Mithi River Development Project Story

Posted by internationalh on June 24, 2006

An estimated 4,055 settlements have been displaced as a result of the Mithi River Development and Protection Authority's (MRDPA) plan to clean-up and rejuvenate the Mithi river. Along with open plots in Mandala in Mankhurd, and buildings constructed by the Mumbai Urban Transport Project (MUTP) and the Mumbai Urban Infrastructure Project (MUIP), Tunga Village is one of the sites where the displaced Project Affected Persons (PAPs) have been relocated.

An incredibly well-written, and informative account about a development project in Mumbai gone awry. Sonia Faleiro
