Dombivli

India / Maharashtra / Ulhasnagar /
 city, town
Dombivli is a town in India with a population of about 12,46,381 (2011 census). It is the first fully literate town in Maharashtra and the second in India. Dombivli is a small middle class town with a majority population of Hindus. It is located about fifty kilometers from Mumbai. The name "Dombivli / Dombivali" is believed to have come from a tribal group who lived nearby, named the "dombs".

History
Dombivli came into being as the Gajabandhan Village, and the "Old Dombivli", which forms the West flank, is embraced by the river Ulhas. The East flank has been developed under the jurisdiction of the Maharashtra Industrial Development Corporation.

Dombivli boasts a cosmopolitan population with Maharashtrians, Jains, Gujaratis, Kannadigas, Tamilians, Malayalees and Punjabis, with a marginal population of Khojas (The Aga-Khan cult). Although the town may have existed for six to seven centuries, little is known of its history, apart from a huge open space which the Archaeological Survey of India declared as a pond used by the peshwas. The land adjacent to it happened to be a horse grazing and training site. A huge stone was unearthed by the Archealogical Department with the encryptions marking the evidence of the same.


Economy
Today, Dombivli is well known for rapid industrial growth with major dyes, paints, chemical, and heavy metal factories based in the industrial part of the town. Some of the well known ones are Gharda Chemicals, Vicco Labs, Lloyd Steel, and Deepak Fertilizers. The 1980s saw Dombivli growing into a crowded and saturated city due to industrial development under the plan. Dombivli's approachability by road and rail, and its potential in land and manpower increased tremendously. The industries have been developed in two phases so far, and new plans have been proposed.

The town has three railway stations under its jurisdiction: Dombivli Railway Station, Thakurli Railway Station, and the Kopar Bridge Railway Station . Dombivli is served by all local trains terminating at stations beyond Thane, and it is a stop for all major fast local trains.

Dombivli also has the honour of becoming the first fully "literate" town in Maharashtra and the second in Asia . Over a hundred schools offer primary and secondary education, and over a dozen are affiliated with the University of Mumbai. A couple of colleges also offer technical education and are affiliated with the Board of Technical Examination, Mumbai.

The town has produced fine literature, classical music, plays, poetry, and actors.
some of them are Reema Lagu,Urmila Matonkar,Tejashree Pradhan,Bhau Kadam,Kushal Badrike,etc.

Demographics
Dombivli is home to eight colleges and a student population of 20,000. It boasts many high rank holders every year in the Secondary School Certificate and Higher Secondary (School) Certificate exams. There are temples for all faiths, Jamatkhana for the Khoja Muslims, and also a few churches.

Most of the couples in Dombivli are professionals with a more "modern" lifestyle, often reflected in their one-child families and penchance for consumer goods. Consumerism is at its peak here and hence, these families are often referred to as DISCOs (Double Income Single Child Only). About 67-68% of families in the city are classified as DISCOs.

Dombivli has library near Charrasta no Match in our country "swami vivekanand engineering library" managed by engineering students and yashodeep overnite library @ shivajiudyognagar.

The city's healthcare is some of the best in India. The town boasts about 1500 doctors for the population of 1,500,000, so the ratio of doctors per 1000 is comparable to any developed Western country.

  • Dombivli is a great town to live in with humble education minded people. only problem lies in development of infrastructure. I was on a visit recently and find roads are the same plight even after many years. Electricity is a major problem. I think it lacks development as a city. People should take up this matter seriously as they r not getting what they deserve. Vehicles are increasing but driving is a tough challenge in dombivli.But still dombivli rocks, Now that I am away from it I miss it.

Now I have shifted to dombivili east near phadke rd. Whenever I visit the ganesh temple at phadke rd. i really get immense peace.

  • Hey OraDba, Whatever your name is you can go to hell with your comments. Looks like some dombivlikar really kicked your ass there. As for Dombivali, it is the best place for a middle class person to stay, very friendly people, feel at home atmosphere etc. although I would advice you to really be ready for some electricty and water shortages. I mean its not funny, considering that dombivali is the best city (Google it up or check the records with MSEB) in timely and complete recovery of electricity and water bills. Vidya Niketan is the best school and not swami vivekanand school. Those who think dombivali is not good enough well they can Kiss my 'you know what' and never ever think about visiting dombivali.

History of dombivli- before independence there was no dombivli station.in those days dombivli was dark forest area like lonavala,hence many people had bought land and built bunglows in dombivli to spend holidays. prime tribe of dombivli- Agri community people are prime tribes of dombivli.all the lands and plots were belong to those people.they were farmers,but due to illliteracy many outsiders purchased their lands at very low rates from them.

  • Dombivli is a very nice city..............
  • A Land of diversified people and culture, living in peace and harmony. the best happening place in entire Thane and Mumbai. If people are not convinced, pls visit during Diwali, Dasera, Gudi Padva, Dahi-Handi, Rang-panchami and major festivals. Just to share an incident, during diwali when I was traveling towards dombivli from Malad-Dadar-Dombivli route, I thought " Today is it Diwali?" ( Because I didnt find that jazzy anywhere else. But the moment i entered dombivli platform, the flashy fireworks, lanterns, diyas, rangoli, people at 11.30 in night were crowded at all the streets, younger generations busy with fireworks. And lot things that cannot be explained but can be experienced. Thats Dombivli. I think People should feel it to believe it. Thanks all.
  • I am born and brought up in Dombivli, I love it, and that is why I have to say that the current generation can never be able to experience what my or prior generations have. As of now the place is ruined by bad roads, bad buildings and overcrowded localities. Planning is bad and exceution is worse. The people need to come together and bring it to its past glory. Dont let the builders, politicians and other uneducated greedy pigs ruin it.
  • We are moving to Dombivli East shortly.Please let me know the best ICSE schools around this place
