The Deonar dumping ground which spans 311 acres, has been operational since 1927, serving as Mumbai’s primary landfill. At present, it houses approximately 20 million metric tonnes (MT) of solid waste. Each day, the city generates around 6,500 to 7,000 MT of waste, with roughly 600 to 700 MT—about 10 per cent — directed to Deonar.: The toxic gases, foul air, and particulate matter permeating the area have put residents — mostly from lower income families — at an increased risk of health issues.
the Maharashtra government made a controversial cabinet decision on October 14, allocating a 124-acre portion of the dumping ground to the Adani Group, for housing units as part of the proposed Dharavi Redevelopment Project (DRP).
