Hi:

Can anyone please provide references to any studies available on
rehabilitation schemes for Mumbai 'slums', esp. Dharavi -- which
specifically point at the fact the people don't want to move out of
the 'slum' spaces because of the thriving 'informal' economy there --
and that rehabilitation is a state mechanism to introduce regulation
and surveillance of 'slum' populations.

Are there any studies on these or similar lines?
