The Dharavi Redevelopment Project Pvt Ltd (DRPPL) is geared towards the advancement of Adani Realty, not the residents of Dharavi,” declared Shiv Sena (UBT) leader Uddhav Thackeray, addressing a gathering of protestors who marched from Dharavi T Junction to the realty giant’s office in BKC on Saturday.

The demonstration witnessed participation from all opposition parties, in response to the alleged favouritism of the Eknath Shinde-led government in awarding the 259-hectare project to Adani Realty in July. Thackeray called the project the biggest Transfer of Development Rights (TDR) scam, accusing the state government of ignoring the common man’s demands and favouring the business conglomerate.
