Sanjay Gandhi National Park
Sanjay Gandhi national park has played home to many poachers in the recent years. Usually, leopards are attacked. In many cases these animals had been poisoned, and claws or other valuable body parts were cut off and sold. Poaching could soon wipe out Mumbai's leopard population.
Patlipada
The area has seen massive population growth with a lot of new residential and commercial projects being completed in the last 4–8 years. Commercial activity is on the rise. Patlipada is at a higher altitude than the actual city. The Sanjay Gandhi National Park area is across the road. Coming from Thane Station, Patlipada is after Manpada and before Waghbil.
