Maharashtra Opens Dharavi Experience Centre To Show Residents Redevelopment Plans

The 22,500 sq ft interactive centre gives residents tangible previews to build trust in the Adani‑led public‑private redevelopment.

Overview

  • The Experience Centre, which opened on Friday, October 2, 2026, offers life‑size 350 sq ft and 500 sq ft sample flats, a 3D walkthrough and interactive exhibits that let visitors see proposed homes, workplaces and public spaces.
  • Officials say the centre was built to curb rumours by providing real‑time information on surveys, eligibility and rehabilitation through staffed help desks and digital channels.
  • Execution of the Dharavi Redevelopment Project is assigned to Adani Navbharat Developers in a joint vehicle with the state, with reporting that the JV stake is roughly 80% Adani and 20% government.
  • Under the official framework eligible tenement holders are to receive 350 sq ft of carpet area free within the Dharavi Notified Area and eligibility is being determined through ongoing household surveys.
  • The plan shown at the centre includes a Multimodal Transport Hub, Mithi River rejuvenation, about 40,000 new trees and a 3.3 km riverfront, and the project follows household numbering and surveys that have logged over 99,000 homes numbered and more than 91,000 surveyed as part of earlier phases.
