Dear Avinash, If you can find a copy of The Times of India, Mumbai edition of 1st May 2008 at a nearby "raddiwala" in Mira Road or elsewhere then read the fourth page where you will find how the developers are cheating everyone by avoiding Dahisar octroi naka. Singapore International School, Lodha Aqua, Thakur Mall and part of Orchid Ozone Mall are in Mira Road. I am correcting my earlier statement regarding Orchid Ozone Mall because the official correspondence which I have received is that this mall lies in both the municipal corporations (BMC and Mira-Bhayander) and the developer has taken approvals from both the Municipalities. Thus Orchid Ozone Mall is in Mumbai as well as Mira Road. But Avinash I appreciate your efforts. "JISKA DIL JALTA HAI USEY HI PATA CHALTA HAI"
Hi Tisgaon, Can you tell me the exact date of the TOI issue where this article is. I am from Mira Road too and I really dont understand why Lodha Aqua, Thakur Mall and Orchid Ozone are addressed as in Dahisar. Also, Just behind Thakur Mall there is a school Singapore International school, I saw that their address on http://www.sisindia.net/html/contactus.htm says Next to Thakurmall Dahisar with pincode 401104 which is of Mira Road. Ha Haaa

Dear India ENews, Already I have tired from answering the TRUTH regarding the controversial location of this mall with respect to the political boundary of Mumbai city. This mall which is supposed to be India's biggest Mall is not inside Mumbai city limits but is just outside it. It is in Mira Road which falls in Mira-Bhayander Municipal Corporation limits and is touching the Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation limits at Dahisar Check Naka. The developer is wrongly claiming it to be at Dahisar a Mumbai suburb. There are already many responses to the location of this mall on other blogs and Net News publisher and Yahoo Answers. This TRUTH is already a news published in the Times of India - Mumbai edition during first week of May 2008. Please ask M/s D B Realty management to change the publicised location from Dahisar to Mira Road. Regards, BYE.
