In pre-colonial India, the Koli fishing community had settled at the northernmost tip of the island of Parel. Their community was right next to the Mahim Creek that provided them livelihood for centuries. Bear in mind that this is the pre-colonial Bombay- a group of seven islands on the coast of the Arabian sea.
In the 16th Century, the Portuguese colonists built a small fort and church at Bandra, the shore opposite to Dharavi, but did not interfere with the Koli fishermen community. In 1737, the British built the Riwa Fort at Dharavi, also known as the Kala Qila on the orders of their second British Governor of Bombay, Gerald Aungier. The fort served the British forces as a watchtower, guarding them against any attacks from the Portuguese or the Marathas.
The turning point in the history of Dharavi came in the 18th century when the swamps of Bombay started to be reclaimed. All the seven islands were joined into a single landmass, with Parel at its outskirts.
The Mahim Creek dried up soon afterward, owing to the reclamation project. The Koli community had lost their source of livelihood and began to disperse towards more promising locations
The landscape of Dharavi, around the 1850s, was a heterogeneous mixture of industrial and handicrafts. Fishing village huts and industrial sheds tore through the swampy lands, punctuated by people dragging carts filled with goods along the dirt roads. The skyline was smokestacks of the textile mills right beside the potters’ kilns (which would later develop into Kumbharwada, the potters’ colony).
The opportunities offered by the colonized, industrial Bombay initially attracted migrants from Maharashtra, Konkan, and Gujarat. These settlers moved towards the south of Bombay but were soon pushed away by the authorities to the outskirts in the North. By the end of the 19th century, Dharavi became the home to a diversity of artists and aspirants- potters from Saurashtra, Muslim leather tanners from Tamil Nadu, embroidery workers, and artisans from Uttar Pradesh, and confectioners from Tamil Nadu.
