After some worrying news about COVID-19 cases being on the rise once again, a report about Dharavi was like a ray of sunshine on an overcast day.

Dharavi, once on the radar for spiralling Coronavirus cases and deaths, has managed to rein it in, admirably. The impossibly crowded Mumbai pocket, with a population density of about 3.54 lakh per square kilometre, has been consistently recording less than 20 cases daily for the past one month, a report said in this paper. The local administration has claimed that they are better prepared for the second wave of the pandemic, than they were for the first.
