Even as COVID-19 cases rise in various parts of the city, Dharavi, once a hotspot, has been consistently recording less than 20 cases daily for the past month. Since November 1, the number of cases crossed 10 only once, on November 2, when 11 cases were recorded.

The local administration of the area has also claimed that the area will not suffer during a second wave as much as it did during the first one as they are better prepared now.
