Efforts led by the Maharashtra govt and BMC to aggressively target the tracing of Covid suspects in Dharavi drew the Centre’s praise. Dharavi has recently seen a sharp decline in infections. The growth rate reduced from 4.3% in May to further 1.02% in June in the densely populated slum. The proactive measures adopted by BMC reduced the growth rate to 4.3% in May and further to 1.02% in June. The BMC adopted a model of actively following the four Ts — tracing, tracking, testing and treating.
