Ticket to nostalgia. Maharashtra Day

Let us turn the pages of history to the formation of Maharashtra! Commemorating the state's birth on May 1, 1960, Maharashtra Day is celebrated annually with parades, political addresses, ceremonies and many other public and private gatherings. Following the enactment of the Bombay Reorganisation Act, 1960, the boundaries of Maharashtra and Gujarat were decided based on languages spoken in different areas of the region. Being India's second-most populous states, and one of its most industrialised, Maharashtra is split into 36 districts and 6 divisions.

As the state unfurls this historical moment, our eyes are drawn to the architectural marvel that is Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj Terminus, standing tall amidst the bustling cityscape of Mumbai. Initially known as Victoria Terminus and later renamed in 2017, this iconic terminus was designed by British engineer Frederick William Stevens. The station's construction commenced in 1878 and concluded in 1887, it is built in the Italian Gothic style commemorating the Golden jubilee of Queen Victoria's reign.
