      @@shrihara a 5 floor apartment is inhertingly safer than a 20 floor apartment. In any case of disaster, a 5 floor apartment can be evacuated far more easily than a skyscraper, by the simple maths that in taller buildings more people will have to pass through a specific unit of area than if the building was shorter. And if your building is wider than is taller (as is in most shorter structures), you can have more methods of evacuation, that is more stairs and elevators per unit of area. Not to mention, a lot of space does indeed gets wasted building taller buildings. It may sound contrardictary to the whole notion, but you can't build 200 meters high on mere 1000 square feet. Infact You need more space to make sure that the building is stable, and your lower floors will have to be wider than the floors above. And this is not even mentioning other things like health care, children health and mental health. It's far easier to get someone medical help if he's not living a 100 metres above ground, unless off course every apparent has its own doctor and hospital. Another problem is societal interaction. The ease of accessing the outside world in shorter building promotes people getting outside regularly and not only on work, but this ease is absent in taller buildings. Infact the act of climbing down(or using the elevators) might serve the opposite. And to add it, In a tall building, you at most know the person on the same floor, and even then, it's highly likely that they remain mere acquaintances. This wouldn't happen in shorter buildings. And before you say that existence of elevators makes up for the inconveniences of living further from the ground, the overuse of elevators will cause even more health problems like obesity. All and all, skycrapers aren't the best way of dealing with housing problems, as it would create new problems instead. The answer is always good city planning, having a sprawling residential area connected to the commercial and market area by good and convenient high speed public transit.

      It's not safe.. Consider the example of Chennai.. During heavy floods buildings got destructed because the ground underneath cannot support the weight.. The FSI value should really depend on the soil quality and each building built with a large fsi should ideally be reconstructed after a prescribed time usually around 40-50 years. In india that is pretty much not the case.

    The other side of building skyscrapers is maintaining them. And believe me, when it comes to maintainanace of anything, we indians are worst. We have corruption in saftey board beurocrats, and many of buildings/apartments in suburbs are already waiting for redevelopment. In some cases, people have died as old buildings have collapsed. Demolition of older buildings/apartment is not a common practice in India unlike Manhattan, Hong Kong, etc.
    Before thinking of higher FSI in India, we must execute stringent saftey policies for people who would be living/working in such skyscrapers.

According to me almost 70-80% or may be more of the undeveloped plots of land in Mumbai are under some kind of litigation

    The solution is not simple as increasing FSI. An increased FSI will overburden existing infrastructure around skyscraper. Best example is lower Parel which experiences traffic jam and cramming at train station during office peak hours. What we need is a proper city planning.

    Theres definitely more to this than meets the eye. The interviewer only showed one side of the story by systematically editing interviews to suit his narrative and also by not interviewing experts and politicians who are in favour of lower FSI, at all. The western rules are not applicable here in India, because for example, USA has a population of 30 crores wheres as Indian population is 125 crores hence we need bigger cities to urbanise more people. Also, a high FSI will lower down ground water levels. This reporting is totally biased.

      Indeed. This video is just a tool for advocating higher FSI without a care about the consequences. Read this:-
      www.sdmarchitects.com/does-mumbai-need-more-fsi-or-less.html
      FSI is just a tool. Mumbai needs more tools, only regulating FSI does no good.

    1.3 fsi is not their because they think that more people will come to Mumbai to live but it is there to maintain the gap between the demand and supply and by that to keep it more profitable with less work and also to maintain the gap between rich and middle class.but what the backfire is that they have raise the price too high that it even out of reach to the higher middle class now the only hope is to convert their properties into the NPA in bulk so that load have to be beard by the the PSU banks and ultimately by the people of country.

    But are skyscrapers really necessary to show the development of India. Mumbai has many skyscrapers but their density is low. It's a shame you didn't mention any scientific facts. First of all, the reason why Indian cities have less fsi is because of extreme climatic conditions. Mumbai has an average temperature of 30°C throughout year and pollution levels are high which means all skyscrapers here are consuming massive amount of energy for conditioning and filteration which is bad for a developing nations like ours. The reason why other cities which lie near the equator like Dubai and Singapore can make skyscrapers is because they are rich. Second, some parts of India have water shortage soo it will decrease ground water which is bad for an agriculture backed economy. Third, please don't take example of Mumbai only and then represent rest of Indian cities. Indian cities like Gurgaon, Noida have much taller skyscrapers than London and there are many to come as the nation is getting rich day by day due to Modis policies. Also some parts of India are earthquake prone soo...
