Quick Read
As mid-day continues with its ‘Know Your Wards’ series, we now focus on the ‘A’ administrative ward, which borders the Arabian Sea, forming a part of Mumbai’s western coastline.
AHEAD of the Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation (BMC) elections, mid-day will bring you a `Know Your Ward` update with details of Mumbai`s 227 electoral wards, across the 24 administra- tive wards. Each instalment will highlight ward-wise charteristic challenges issues that put the spotlight on development priorites, key landmarks, demographic patterns, and the political landscape of the ward . The population density of the area, natural boundaries such as the city coast-line and rivers, or human-made boundaries such as nullahs and railway lines, determine boundaries of these wards. Each of Mumbai`s 24 administrative wards is home to a varied number of electoral wards. While some administrative wards, such as L ward in Kurla and the F-North ward in Matunga, comprise as many as 10 electoral wards, South Mumbai`s A and B wards have only three and two electoral wards, respectively. The first in the series are `A ward` comprising wards 225, 226, and 227, and `Ward B`, comprising wards 223, and 224.
