  • Summary

  • What’s life like in a fast-growing city like Mumbai? This episode explores why people leave rural areas for urban opportunities, drawn by better jobs, higher wages, and improved services. But rapid urbanization comes with challenges—Mumbai’s slums like Dharavi face overcrowding, poor housing, and sanitation issues. As one of India’s economic powerhouses, the city also deals with unemployment and low-paying informal jobs. We’ll look at urban planning solutions, from massive redevelopment projects to local initiatives, and how they aim to create a more sustainable and inclusive city for all.
