Shivaji Park declared as the Silence zone

The residents living in that area are happy, because they will now enjoy the peace and tranquility of Shivaji park that will not be used for rallies and public gatherings.

Shivaji Park in Dadar is the park where Sachin Tendulkar and many other famous crickers practiced cricket in their childhood. The park was created in 1925 by the Bombay Municipal Corporation, during the days of British India.

This move has upset many political parties because now they worry about the future venue for their rallies in Mumbai. What they don’t understand is that besides making noise pollution these rallies holds the city at ransom, firstly, there is so much traffic jam in Mumbai city and these rallies add to our frustrations.

It is an important landmark of Mumbai, so glad that it is finally given back to the residents who can now enjoy their peace.

The name "Bombay" was derived from 'Bom Bahia' (The Good Bay),

.... a name given by Portuguese sailor Francis Almeida, in 1508 ....“Bounce back Mumbai” .....as it is called by the locals, it is a city that has been through a lot in the recent past – floods, bomb blasts, riots – and come out stronger each time.

Whats the Time Please?
