AAI Radar Relocation Unlocks Land for Affordable Housing in Dahisar

AAI Radar Relocation Unlocks Land for Affordable Housing in Dahisar

The Airports Authority of India (AAI) is moving its high-frequency radar from Dahisar to Gorai in Mumbai.

This move will free up 1,000 acres of land for building affordable homes.

The decision was made after talks between the Civil Aviation Ministry, the Maharashtra government, and other groups.

Over the next five years, about 50,000 homes will be built or redeveloped.

This will help many people who live in old, run-down buildings.

The Maharashtra government will pay for moving the radar.

They are also looking at moving another radar from Juhu to a new site.

This will help with building projects in Dahisar and Juhu.

The goal is to make these areas better places to live with more homes and jobs.
