Maharashtra Chief Minister Uddhav Thackeray said on Saturday said that Dharavi slum in Mumbai has emerged as a global role model for controlling the spread of novel coronavirus. "Asia's largest slum & densely populated area like Dharavi has not only shown the World that through collective effort Corona can be controlled but has also made a name for itself globally as a role model in the fight against Corona said the Hon'ble CM Uddhav Balasaheb Thackeray," the Office of the Maharashtra Chief Minister said in a series of tweets after World Health Organisation (WHO) praised the efforts taken to contain the spread of the COVID-19 in the Asia's largest slum.
The Chief Minister said that such examples of human triumph over global pandemic can inspire others. He praised the efforts taken to control the spread of Corona and said the global recognition of Dharavi as a role model in this fight will strengthen our effort in this #WarAgainstVirus, the Maharashtra CMO tweeted.
