India's rapidly urbanizing cities, especially Mumbai, face decaying infrastructure and overcrowding, necessitating urgent redevelopment.

Government support through dedicated funds, streamlined approvals, and financial incentives is crucial to accelerating urban renewal and ensuring livable, sustainable cities.
