How  far  is  thana  from  borivali?
I  am  staying  at  Airoli,which  place  should  I  getdown  BORIVALI  or  BCT?  i  am  planning  to  hire  a  taxi.

asked by Shirish on Mar 06, 2007 11:38 AM

Hi  Shirish,
the  distance  between  thane  &  borivali  is  about  25-30  kms.I  suggest  you  to  get  down  at  borivali,take  a  bus  from  there  to  thane  and  again  another  bus  from  thane  to  airoli.The  buses  u  will  have  to  check  will  be  the  MBMT  bus  from  borivali  whereas  a  NMMT  bus  from  thane  for  airoli.Let  me  tell  their  frequency  is  prett  good  Apart  from  bus  u  can  come  by  train  too  but  that  will  not  be  very  feasible  due  to  different  lines  this  city  belongs  to.

Can  u  please  tell  me  about  the  recent  developments  in  industries  in  mumbai.PLease  help  with  the  industrial  developments  in  mumbai  since  2000.thank  you....

asked by aditi on Mar 03, 2007 12:11 PM

Hey  Aditi,
If  i  have  to  talk  abt  the  recent  developments  in  industries  in  mumbai  since  2000,there  can  be  a  autobiography  being  printed  on  tht  content.i  think  it  will  be  much  better  if  we  can  decide  upon  the  specific  industrial  streams  where  u  r  looking  out  for  developments.The  most  prominent  factor  which  i  think  that  came  across  was  the  privatisation  seen  in  the  aviation  sector  or  even  the  developments  seen  in  terms  of  infrastructure  i.e.  the  roadways  n  railways.But  m  sure  this  will  be  very  vague  if  u  r  not  looking  out  something  in  the  travel  sector...So  i  think  it  will  be  much  better  if  we  can  focus  upon  some  specific  factors  in  this  world  of  industrialisation.
