The Transgression of Population in The Satellite Cities of Mumbai

1
The Satellite cities of Mumbai are gleaming with the tag of overpopulated hub. Mira-Bhyander and Navi Mumbai have taken over the charms of Mumbai, thus emerging as fast growing places. The past decade research shows that the overall average growth of Navi Mumbai and Mira-Bhyander stood at 4.6% and 4.5% respectively. Thane city in Mumbai saw a dull growth of 0.5% leading to the percentage of 3.7.

As per the 2011 census, NMMC's the number of populace was 11.2 Lakh as against the 7.04 Lakh population in 2000. MBMC's population was 8.14 lakh in contrast to 5.2 lakh in 2000.

The deviation towards the path of affordability
The combined analysis of RB Bhagat and Gavin W Jones shows that since the past two years, there has been compelling transformation in the division of the population between the suburbs and the island city. The research was laid down by high hierarchy people. The former is a HoD, migration and urban studies in the International Institute of Population Sciences; Mumbai and latter is the director of Asia Research Institute at the National University of Singapore. There is a down surge of 15 per cent Island city's share. Earlier it was 40% that was now slumped to 25%.

Over the past decade, with the coming of metro, the island city has seen negative shift in population growth rate. The demography has deviated their path and interest towards the periphery of metro region. The changeover is expected to continue, and one of the main acumen behind is the unaffordable Housing in Mumbai.

The affordability factor works best for the population residing in Mira-Bhyander and working in the western suburbs. The workforce of the central suburbs prefers Navi Mumbai due to the modernized infrastructure.

The De-industrialization in Mumbai

The experts reveal that being a business hub, most of the people having accommodations in the satellite and far-fetched cities travel to the city of dreams daily. In the city people compromise with their way or quality of life because of the unfair transport system put.
After the seizure of textile mills and relocation of engineering, pharmaceutical and chemical industries in the 1980s and 1990s, the demography shifted to the city.  The de-industrialization of Mumbai phase saw a significant economic upheaval. Post this phase, the city changed into service city. Large part of the service sector entertained informal activities.

The availability of the city of dreams
Mumbai that is an island and suburb as well has a total population of 1.24 crore as of now. Mumbai is still known as the most densely populated cities in Asia.

The major factors that drove the populace shift towards Navi Mumbai and Mira-Bhayander are the availability of the options of cheap housing and the impregnation of Mumbai. Apart from the benefits of affordability, people have to compromise their quality of life due to the unavailability of smooth transport system.

The government policies are at large to be blamed for the move. Their conventional approach has restricted many developers that has propagated corruption and accelerated the rates. Once the real estate is liberalized, the dreams of affordable housing are possible.
