2. The Adani Group will be redeveloping the cluster and rehabilitating the dwellers in Dharavi. The project completion timeline is 17 years, with the rehabilitation portion expected to be completed within seven years after the approvals are in place.
3. The current status of the project is that the Adani Group is carrying out a survey of the slum cluster to determine which slum dwellers are eligible to receive 350 sq ft homes. Dharavi Redevelopment Project Pvt Ltd (DRPPL), a joint venture between the government of Maharashtra and the Adani Group, is also preparing a master plan for the project.
