NEWS: Urbanisation arrives at Thul-India.
After a meeting by the investers and board members of various compaines at 3pm, it has been revealed that a large numbers of factories are going to be built from Thul to Vaishet, Vaishet to Rewas and Rewas to Uran. These factories will take up alot of land, and the developers are currently trying to convince the residents in Thul to sell their land to them, which some might not. Thule, also known for its rice, rice paddies will be destroyed to also make space for the factories. The urbanisation of Thul also includes building of commercial building and residential buildings. All these urbanisation will eventually disrupt the life of the people, who usually do farming or fishing. With the new factories also, it will start to pollute the waters, and the villagers can no longer fish, as their boats cannot go too far out too fish.

These is deplorable News for many of the people living there, but might also help many people, who are looking for jobs. But even for the large amount of new job opportunities, they are looking for workers who have high expertise, and skills with good education. Something many people in Thul do not have. With the Thul people losing their jobs and being not able to get new ones, they might become desperado's and resort to crime for money, thus decreasing the security level in these commercial area. People have also started to protest in the city of Bombay, in hope to stop this urbanisation.

Although it will still be a long time till the factories are built, but the people there must start planning for the future.
