Nagpada

Nagpada is a neighbourhood in South Mumbai.
The Prakritized form of the Sanskrit name "Nag-patakha" is mentioned as a name of Nagpada in the 15th-17th century Marathi-language text Mahikavatichi Bakhar. The place derives its name from a local Shiva temple, and abode of Naag or the snake wound around Shiva's neck. It has a community basketball court.
In 2005, Nagpada was the location of the Sadaf Manzil building collapse.
In April 2018, the Nagpada junction was beautified with a 25 metre national flag along with a mural dedicated to Bharat Ratna Abul Kalam Azad. The area was a meeting point for pre-independence gatherings and has witnessed many political movements during the pre-independence era. It was designed by architect Hafeez Contractor and inaugurated by Mumbai Mayor Vishwanath Mahadeshwar.
