MUMBAI: Three new cases of coronavirus were recorded in Mumbai's slum colony of Dharavi, taking the tally to 2,338 on Wednesday, the city civic body said.
On Tuesday, just one COVID-19 patient was found in Dharavi, once a hotspot which has seen a dramatic improvement in the coronavirus situation.
With the addition of three new COVID-19 cases, the tally in Dharavi has gone up to 2,338, a senior Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation (BMC) official said.
The civic body has, however, stopped disclosing the number of deaths, if any, in the slum-dominated area since the past few days.

Dharavi, the largest slum in Asia, is spread across 2.5 square km and has a population of around 6.5 lakh with people living in tiny houses.
