The Shivaji Nagar slums in Govandi that house about 26,000 families could be the first in Mumbai to become safe from electrocution or fire incidents due to short-circuits. A joint venture between Reliance and World Bank aims to streamline internal electric wiring inside the hutments in unorganised localities and provide them electric meters. The pilot project is likely to take a year's time.
Work on the project will start only after the approaching monsoon. After this pilot project, Reliance may take up such programmes in all big slums across suburban Mumbai where it supplies power to more than 29 lakh consumers.
