Vasind was a very small village with about only 4-5 houses in the early 1820's . But in 1850's when Britishers Started construction of North Central Line to connect Mumbai with Northen India . They came with a proposal for a Railway Staion At Khatiwali about 1 kilometers ahead of vasind towards kasara { because their existed a village with population good enough for a station} . But due to lack of trust on britishers , residents of khatiwali denied the proposal and hence britishers choosed Vasind as a place to construct a Railway Station . and in the Year 1855 North Central Line was extended upto Vasind Cabin and Vasind station was constructed in mid 1855 .this totally changed the geography of Vasind . Vasind became an easy Connectivity of Mumbai by means of Emu local and 51153/ 51154 Mumbai bhusawal Passenger or "Sawari Gadi" .Vasind started to develop Jilha parishad school commanly known as khapri shala [government school] was constucted in year 1866 which made vasind an educational center for nearby villagers and finally vasind Gram-panchayat was also established . and the Development went on but people had to face a problem for water and dependent on wells and Bhatsai river for drinking and other purpose water . In late 1970's water tank was constructed at Sahyadri hill and people got tap water direct to house and this problem was solved . Another major problem was the Mumbai-Nasik highway as it passed through Vasind Main town and Alot of people lost their lives due to accident while crossing and so. To solve this problem Government of Maharashtra took a huge step for diversion of this highway under peoples demand and the highway was diverted completly from outer vasind in order to prevent accident this was a major step. |
