• Mumbra, a world in itself

    “People are not particularly inclined towards formal jobs. They prefer to run small businesses within Mumbra so that they don’t have to go out and they make Mumbra a world in itself. So many colleges have come up, so many classes, hotels and small eateries. You will find all kinds of things in Mumbra. The Muslims have created an entire world for themselves. They try to fulfil all their needs here so that they don’t have to leave.”

    Fauzia Qureshi, Activist, Mumbra

  • The feeling of safety

    “Why should I feel safe only here? Why should I not feel safe in Malad? From one point of view, this feeling isn't correct. Why shouldn't Hindus be able to live here? Why shouldn't I be able to live in Malad? This is wrong and we should not encourage it.”

    Farhana Ashraf, Teacher, Jogeshwari, Mumbai
