If you believed Navi Mumbai is all about brand new, the folks at RaahGeer Citywalks say, give it a rethink. Known for their off-the-beaten track trails and walks across the city, this time, they are set to explore the lesser-seen side to Mumbai's satellite city. "A good friend, architect Ritu Deshmukh, encouraged me to explore Navi Mumbai, going beyond its image of an urban, planned city that took shape in 1971," says Deepa Nandi of RaahGeer. Along with third year architecture students of Bharti Vidyapeeth, Kharghar, the group stumbled on engaging information from local residents, and included it in their research.
