Delhi Pilots Mumbai-Style Hygiene Centre in RK Puram Slum Cluster
Delhi's Municipal Corporation is piloting a Mumbai-style 'Suvidha Centre' in the Ekta Camp slum cluster of RK Puram, offering subsidised toilets, showers, laundry, and RO-filtered drinking water. The 160-square-metre facility, costing about Rs 2.5 crore, includes 46 toilet stalls, four showers, eight washing machines, and a water ATM. Constructed by Hindustan Unilever under CSR, it features an on-site sewage treatment plant, rainwater harvesting, and solar energy systems. If successful, 20 more centres may be developed to improve sanitation and wastewater management in slum areas.
