Dr G S S Prakash

At the outset let me congratulate Mr. Giridhar Pai for this wonderful book - Life at Urbania. The chapters covered on Urbania township and also entire Thane city. Mr Giri explored Thane city and shared his experiences of various locations covering eating places, parks, gardens, old historical buildings, lakes etc in Thane city. I know he is a keen observer and like to capture everything in his writing. That is what the outcome is "Life at Urbania". His passion towards Gardening prompted him to conduct various gardening workshops at Urbania helped many Urbania residents to experiment with gardening, He gave very informative tips on transports, shopping places, eateries etc, in Thane city. I would like to congratulate once again for coming up with very informative book covering many important places of Thane city. A very useful hand book of information and guidance in and around Thane city. I am sure that this book is indispensable not only for people live in Urbania but also for all living in Thane city. I highly recommend Life @ Urbania for people living in Urbania and in Thane city.
