region has only expanded in the number of residents in its
slum

formed their base in Dharavi

limited community toilets to take care of basic utilities of the
residents in slums. Hence, many prefer defecating in the open
 Water Supply – On comparing with sanitation facilities in
slums, the water supply coverage is still decent
 Waste Management – There are inadequate bins, lack of
awareness among slum dwellers

residents have always witnessed significant loss of lives

slums
 Dwelled with Bollywood celebrities, entrepreneurs, etc. the
elite people have high class bungalows,
residential properties in Mumbai to live in
 Slums have a large gap to improve on every daily basis
