Thanks to HCL Foundation for supporting us in this unique initiative.

Improve miserable SRA living quarters: Plan panel

The planning committee for Mumbai's new development plan has recommended a review of the builder-driven Slum Rehabilitation Authority (SRA) scheme, which has created "miserable living" conditions for slum dwellers dumped in congested high rises.

Bad design of SRA buildings led to spread of TB

The one-year-long study was carried out by Doctors For You^® (DFY), a non-profit organisation, in three colonies in M East Ward, which reported highest prevalence of TB among Mumbai's 24 wards. A total of 4,080 households were surveyed, including 1,785 in Lallubhai Compound, 1,797 in Natwar Parekh Compound and 498 in PMG Colony, which are located in Mankhurd and Govandi areas.

Closely packed buildings at Govandi slum rehab colony designed for death

A freshly released study of 4,080 households in three rehabilitation colonies of Mankhurd and Govandi, including Natwar Parekh Compound, commissioned by MMRDA and carried out by Doctors For You^®, along with IIT-Bombay, found that almost 10% of the people living here have TB that has possibly festered due to poor living conditions.

1 in 10 living in slum rehab colony has TB; lack of air and light seen as cause

Slum-dwellers dumped in tightly-packed towers with poor light and ventilation are susceptible to a higher rate of tuberculosis (TB), a new study commissioned by the Mumbai Metropolitan Region Development Authority's Environment Improvement Society has revealed. In one such transit settlement in Govandi, the study found that every 10th person has TB.

Prominent citizens and civic activists have written to chief minister Devendra Fadnavis to review various resettlement policies that expose residents of crowded rehabilitation and redevelopment buildings to contagious diseases such as tuberculosis.

IIT team looks for ways to let light, air enter rehab colonies

Thousands of slumdwellers in Mumbai have been rehoused in the past few decades through various rehabilitation schemes. But how do these low-income homes fare in terms of livability? And if they fare poorly, what can be done to fix them? These are some of the questions that Ronita Bardhan and her team are trying to answer at the Centre for Urban Science and Engineering at the Indian Institute of Technology Bombay.
