Mumbai Development Authority |

Mumbai Development Authority aims at the balanced growth of the city by bringing forth such measure as to benefit all the social and economic groups. It is an irony that this most advanced city of the country is facing many challenges today. The crux of all challenges, however, remains the acute shortages of residential houses and the burgeoning prices of real estates in Mumbai . In its bid to address the problem of residential accommodations, the Mumbai Development Authority relies on the housing projects being carried out by Maharashtra Housing & Area Development Authority (MHADA) not only in the city alone by to the whole of Maharashtra. The housing solutions being provided by Mumbai Housing Area Development Board covers the central part of the city as well as the suburbs and the satellite cities. The projects aim at easy accessibility of different kinds of houses at reasonable costs.
As the city is growing rapidly in terms of population, it is hard for the Mumbai Development Authority to keep pace with the requirements of changing times. Nevertheless, Mumbai Metropolitan Region Development Authority (MMRDA) has taken several measures to enhance the living conditions of the people. The diversity in the social fabric of the city confounds the authority and slows down the pace of developmental work, however. The requirement of the people living in shabby houses of slum areas is completely different from that of the people living in plush houses of the most posh areas. Hence, the development and housing authorities have to take wide-ranging steps to meet the challenges being confronted by all these sections. You can have a deep insight into the dealings of these government bodies by visiting their respective sites, the links of which are being provided below.
