The revised draft development plan (RDDP) for Mumbai which has proposed floor space index (FSI) alterations for residential and commercial structures has drawn sharp reactions from town planners and political quarters, who have dubbed it as an attempt to destroy open spaces in the megapolis.

BMC chief Ajoy Mehta had yesterday presented RDDP-2034 for Mumbai and proposed a uniform FSI of 2 for residential buildings and FSI of up to 5 for commercial structures, thus paving way for sky-scrapers across the city.
