Mumbai's G North ward, encompassing Dadar, Shivaji Park, Matunga, Mahim, and Dharavi, faces a civic crisis despite its political and economic significance. The area is undergoing major changes with Dharavi's redevelopment and new Metro lines. However, residents report deteriorating municipal services, particularly in the absence of elected corporators. The ward exhibits stark socio-economic contrasts, from affluent neighborhoods to dense slums, and is a hub for religious and cultural diversity.
