Journey with BTL: Since October 2016
I am Parvez Khan, born in Dharavi and still live with my family here. I am third
in a line of five siblings. During my Pre Undergraduate/ High School I decided
to take up a job due to weak financial background, when I enrolled for
graduation I have to quit working due to clash in timing. My love for language
especially English led or motivated me to work with Be The Local Tours.
I use to see foreigner visiting factories, small
houses and narrow alleys in Dharavi “ why do they come to dharavi was a
question that come to my mind” now on the tour I realised foreigner see dharavi
much more than a near slum. “People living in congested condition work hard to
earn a living and are content.
