It is situated near Byculla and Pydhone. This area is densely populated and culturally diverse. It was formerly an independent Assembly Constituency of the Maharashtra Legislative Assembly. Following a delimitation process in 2008, the constituency was abolished and merged into the '''Mumbadevi Assembly constituency'''.
The name is derived from a creek (khadi) that once separated the island of Bombay from the island of Mazagaon.
