ward into two It was also decided to rename the P North ward to P West once the P East ward office became fully operationalA view of Manori which falls under the P North ward File picThe P North ward then had a population of approximately 12 lakh people and was the largest administrative ward in the city Despite the split of P North ward this area continues to remain the most populated area in Mumbai along with the areas of Andheri and Vile Parle with a high demand for residential spaces in new and upcoming highrise buildingsAn aerial view of Aarey Milk Colony in Goregaon East a large part
