In The First Metro, I write about how the city has spectacularly failed to stem slum proliferation and create affordable housing for the poor in this city where money is the primary language. Garib Nagar was symptomatic of this problem.

Hard to live, harder to relocate - why Kanjurmarg residents want Mumbai’s biggest landfill shut down. Manasi Phadke @manasi87 reports for ThePrint in #MumbaiMatters

When the monster of a big city eats up small suburbs, it is just not life as one knew it.

#Mumbai's natives aren't getting the thick forests and the salt pans of their childhood back.

A "stinking" report by @manasi87 you don't want to read, but should:

The Kanjurmarg landfill, which handles 90 percent of Mumbai’s waste, is in the midst of a heated court battle with residents around it demanding its closure. I visited the landfill to understand how the waste is processed, and why residents are finding it tough to live with it.

@beastieboy07 Thank you :-)

[Bharat Sundaresan @beastieboy07]

This is very nice. @manasi87 has such a beautiful way of painting a picture & few people get the nuances & intricacies of Mumbai like she does. The veg v non veg divide of the city wonderfully weaved together in this piece with special mentions to my former homeland of Ghatkopar

[ThePrintIndia @ThePrintIndia]

Last week, a rumour about a ban on cutting fish in fish markets stirred Mumbai’s politics. @manasi87 talks about Mumbai’s great food divide. Watch ThePrint #TheFirstMetro on camera

[Manasi Phadke @manasi87]

The First Metro is a fortnightly piece I write on Mumbai, looking at the country through the lens of my city. In this edition, I write about Mumbai’s great food divide, a veg vs non-veg undercurrent that manifested itself yet again last week through a rumour about a fish market.

Mumbai’s buses were the second most important mode of public transport. Now, the BEST is left with just a couple of hundred buses of its own. There is a plan of adding more electric buses, but there’s hardly any budget for it. Important story by @ChitnisPurva

[ThePrintIndia @ThePrintIndia]

Big spends on roads, but the BEST bus suffers from low cash-fuel. Mumbai’s public bus infra is strained
