Mumbai Seafood Plaza Reopens, Supported by BMC Training for Women
What happened
Mumbai’s first seafood plaza, operated by women’s self-help groups, reopened at Mahim Chowpatty after a seasonal monsoon break. The plaza features traditional Koli cuisine and was supported by the Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation (BMC), which provided training to participating women in fish-based products to improve their livelihoods. The plaza operates on Wednesdays, Fridays, Saturdays, and Sundays.
