Mahayuti's victory in Maharashtra is a big relief for Adani, Dharavi project may gain momentum
New Delhi: The results of Maharashtra Assembly elections were declared on Saturday, in which the Mahayuti alliance has got a big victory. The stock market will be affected on Monday if the state's ruling party returns to power. At the same time, these election results are also going to be very beneficial for the Adani Group led by famous businessman Gautam Adani. Actually, this means the $3 billion Dharavi redevelopment project in Mumbai. With the formation of a BJP-supported government in Maharashtra, the plan to transform Dharavi area into a modern and world-class city can now get full support. Let us tell you that Dharavi is the largest slum area in Asia.
After the formation of the BJP-Shiv Sena coalition government in Maharashtra, concerns about the future of this project have reduced. The opposition parties, especially the Uddhav Thackeray-led Shiv Sena (UBT), had promised that if their government is formed in the state, all the land given to the Adani Group will be taken back and the project will be cancelled. But now this victory has brought relief for Adani.

This project is special for Adani
Let us tell you that the redevelopment of Dharavi in Mumbai is considered very important for the Adani Group. There is a plan to convert 620 acres of land into an urban center through this project. In this area located near Mumbai International Airport, more than seven lakh people will be given free 350 square feet flats. These flats will be very important for those people who are still forced to live in dilapidated slums without open sewers and toilets.
Rahul Gandhi raised questions
Opposition parties are continuously raising questions regarding Mumbai's Dharavi project. They allege that Adani Group is being unfairly benefited through government funds. Raising this issue, Congress leader Rahul Gandhi said that Bharatiya Janata Party and Prime Minister Modi are benefiting their close friend Adani. However, ruling party leaders say that this project is going to become a global model of slum redevelopment.
Let us tell you that about 10 lakh people live in Dharavi, but under this project, 7 lakh people will be given priority. The rest will be rehabilitated in other parts of the city. Some local people are also opposing this plan, because they believe that it may affect their land and business.
