  • Shahpur is really good city to Stay with. I hv already booked my space & am happy with my own decision. Now today i read a News in Maharashtra Times that Government has declared Shahapur as a " Tourism City " which is good for that region, means more development and good infrastructure will change the entire look of the City. Most important is it will be Chemical / Pollution Free Zone. All the Best !!!
