Before 1950 the geographical limits of Bombay city and administrative limits of Bombay Municipal Corporation were uptill Mahim and Sion. In the year 1945 a Bombay City and Suburbs Post-War Development Committee was appointed that submitted its report in the year 1946 and one of the many recommendations was to extend the city limits upto Majas (Jogeshwari) on the western side and uptill Mankhurd in the east. Finally, on 15th April 1950 the city limits were extended although there was an opposition to the same as the hitherto existing Municipalities, Village Panchayats, Municipal Boroughs and Notified Area Committees were dismissed and superseded by BMC.
