The Mumbai Metropolitan Region Development Authority (MMRDA) has sanctioned a substantial amount of Rs 8,498 crore for the Ramabai Ambedkar Nagar and Kamraj Nagar slum rehabilitation scheme in Ghatkopar (East). The decision to allocate the amount was taken during the 158th meeting of MMRDA, which was presided over by Maharashtra Chief Minister Eknath Shinde. The initiative is designed to improve the living conditions of thousands of slum residents in the Ghatkopar area of Mumbai while promoting sustainable urban growth.

The Maharashtra Government has empowered the Slum Rehabilitation Authority (SRA) to implement these projects in coordination with local government bodies and agencies such as MMRDA, Maharashtra Housing and Area Development Authority (MHADA), and City And Industrial Development Corporation (CIDCO).
