The following statement is false:

Nine Roman Catholic churches were built on Sashti island by the Portuguese: Nirmal ( 1557), Nossa Senhora dos Remédios ( 1557), Sandor ( 1566), Agashi ( 1568), Nandakal ( 1573), Papdy ( 1574), Pale ( 1595), Manickpur ( 1606), and Nossa Senhora das Mercês (1606).

These places are located in the Vasai region, not on the Salsette Island. See this map for their locations: http://www.east-indians.com/bom_map_Details_1.gif

Horizontal growth is also associated with the link roads between the suburban area and the city core area. Salsette island of Mumbai is a typical example of such suburban growth. It is nothing but the spread or growth of residential amenities giving rise to new town (called 'nagar'). 206.84.239.221 ( talk) 04:12, 3 November 2023 (UTC) reply
