Kandivali East: 47 Families Win Lottery for SRA Homes on DP Road
The Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation (BMC) has recently held a lottery for 47 families residing in the slums along the 120-ft DP Road in Kandivali East. These families have won the opportunity to move into new SRA (Slum Rehabilitation Authority) homes, marking a crucial milestone in the long-awaited redevelopment of this area.
Currently, approximately 300 families live in the slums on DP Road. The 47 families were selected through an official lottery system designed to provide legal and improved housing accommodations. This initiative forms part of BMC’s broader effort to:
- Redevelop slum areas
- Enhance living conditions for slum residents
- Provide safer and sustainable housing solutions
While the lottery represents a significant positive development for the selected families, there remains some uncertainty about the overall redevelopment project and the precise timeline for the construction of new homes. The BMC has assured residents that:
- Redevelopment work will proceed
- Detailed plans and schedules are still to be finalized
This lottery event has brought renewed hope to many residents hoping for improved housing and infrastructure. It highlights the city’s commitment to transforming slum areas into safe, sustainable communities.
