PGR Support Fund Success: Excy Hansda (Architecture) 

Posted on: 6 December 2024 in Posts

Maharashtra State Archives in Mumbai, India

Field trip  

The PGR Support Fund was used for a field trip to visit the Maharashtra State Archives in Mumbai, India. Interesting and previously unexplored information was revealed including detailed town planning schemes, byelaws and regulations of the neighbourhoods which are the case studies of the research. This field trip has significantly enriched my research by revealing the intricate web of social and administrative influences in Mumbai's urban development. The integration of archival records, literary narratives, and visual art now enables me to construct a more layered and nuanced narrative of the city’s historical transformation.
