  • Draft Report on the Study of Lakes on Mumbai
    Draft report on the Study of Lakes on Mumbai. 22nd March, 2009 Project team Dr. Goldin Quadros Ms. Gauri Gurav Field Team Mr. Vishal Rasal Mr. Dilip Shenai Mr. Kaustubh Bhagat. World Wide Fund for Nature – India, Maharashtra State Office 204 National Insurance Building, Dr. D.N. Road, Fort Mumbai 400 001. Introduction It is well known that Mumbai city is comprised of seven islands till 1857. Gradually with invasion the islands were merged by the invaders and now the entire city is one big island. The island city has a rich heritage of natural resources like the forests, lakes mangroves, etc. The city in the past was self sufficient in terms of the basic amenities like housing, food, water, electricity it provided to its inhabitants. However with growing population and pollution the city is now adding to the pressure on the adjacent districts for its water and electricity requirements. It is common knowledge that Mumbai has three lakes i.e. Tulsi, Powai and Vihar that used to provide water to Mumbai residents. Very few actually know that the city is blessed with many more in its BMC jurisdiction. These lakes are either polluted by human sewage or industrial effluents and have remained neglected with increasing urbanization. With depleting forests and water resources it is about time that the existing lakes are given a chance to serve the society again. How do we define lakes? There is considerable uncertainty about defining the difference between lakes and ponds. For example, limnologists have defined lakes as waterbodies which are simply a larger version of a pond or which have wave action on the shoreline, or where wind induced turbulence plays a major role in mixing the water column.

  • Mindscapes of Space, Power and Value in Mumbai
    Island Studies Journal, Vol. 9, No. 2, 2014, pp. 277-292 The epistemology of a sea view: mindscapes of space, power and value in Mumbai Ramanathan Swaminathan Senior Fellow, Observer Research Foundation (ORF) Fellow, National Internet Exchange of India (NIXI) Contributing Editor, Governance Now [email protected] ABSTRACT: Mumbai is a collection of seven islands strung together by a historically layered process of reclamation, migration and resettlement. The built landscape reflects the unique geographical characteristics of Mumbai’s archipelagic nature. This paper first explores the material, non-material and epistemological contours of space in Mumbai. It establishes that the physical contouring of space through institutional, administrative and non-institutional mechanisms are architected by complex notions of distance from the city’s coasts. Second, the paper unravels the unique discursive strands of space, spatiality and territoriality of Mumbai. It builds the case that the city’s collective imaginary of value is foundationally linked to the archipelagic nature of the city. Third, the paper deconstructs the complex power dynamics how a sea view turns into a gaze: one that is at once a point of view as it is a factor that provides physical and mental form to space. In conclusion, the paper makes the case that the mindscapes of space, value and power in Mumbai have archipelagic material foundations. Keywords : archipelago, form, island, mindscape, Mumbai, power, space, value © 2014 – Institute of Island Studies, University of Prince Edward Island, Canada. Introduction: unearthing the archipelagic historiography of Mumbai A city can best be described as a collection of spaces. Not in any ontological sense or in a physically linear form, but in an ever-changing, ever-interacting mesh of spatialities and territorialities that display the relative social relations of power existing at that particular point in time (Holstein & Appadurai, 1989).

Pun intended. in the Art of Buying a Great Property. There is a secret behind the staggering stock market successes of the world’s best investors. Their fortunes were built around the significant successes of select picks, rather than the moderate success of the broad market. These informed investors focused on stocks with absolutely outstanding credentials. These stocks were proxies of a break from longstanding status quo, which meant that they would only become increasingly relevant. And lastly, these stocks were backed by excellent management teams that would ride the rebound considerably faster than the sectoral average. Remarkably, this analogy fits Bandra Kurla Complex, Mumbai’s residential niche and the Forum-Omkar management. All three. When you intend to buy a great property, you need to ask yourself, ‘Am I buying only to ride a short-term property cycle?’ or ‘Am I buying into a RARE INFLECTION POINT that could generate multi-year gains, good market or bad?’ One stock market wisdom that has endured all the bull and bear cycles of the world: better to be headed last in the right direction than be the first to rush the wrong way.
