With a beautiful idea in mind, a human being sets out in search of a home. In just three words, security, contentment, and stability can be described as a home. Your family can be safe. You can get everything you need and share your happiness and joy in it. Holding a dream in such a crooked path, a dreamer sets out towards Mumbai on a hopeful note, in search of bread, clothes, and a house. He reaches here. But after coming here, he realizes that in the city of Mumbai, bread and clothes can be achieved immediately with his hard work, but the dream of a house is like a house, for which he has to endure many hardships and expectations, and then his dream may come true.

In the post-independence period, the stages of transition in Mumbai generally started in 1950. The Mumbai region started developing on a large scale. The boundaries of Mumbai city were fixed over time. Since the north-eastern boundary of North-East Mumbai is Mulund, people generally migrated to the neighboring cities of Thane in the 1980s-90s. Everyone was attracted to Thane city because it is an ancient city, as mentioned in ancient texts. Also, Thane city was a city of lakes, and its natural beauty attracted everyone. There are many ancient temples and tourist places here. During this time, the federation of Mumbai and Thane District Co-operative Housing Federation Limited, Mumbai, was divided, and from it, Thane District Co-operative Housing Federation came into existence as a federation for independent Thane on 1 August 1981. During this period, the Thane district was newly developing, so there was a need for a federation of independent housing societies in the Thane district. There are a total of 13 talukas in Thane district, including Thane, Vasai, Palghar, Talasari, Dahanu, Mokhada, Bhiwandi, Wada, Shahapur, Murbad, Kalyan, Dombivli, and Ulhasnagar. Over time, Palghar district became independent, and Palghar and Dahanu became independent from Thane district. A large number of building complexes were built in these cities. Due to the cooperative principle, the common citizens started to trust the housing societies, so they started to look for a dream house in Thane. Over time, the work of housing construction was taken over by builders and developers, and the government announced a new housing policy by converting the agricultural land of the local residents into non-agricultural. read more
