The late 1970s witnessed a construction boom and a significant influx of migrants from within and outside Maharashtra, which saw Bombay overtake Calcutta as India's most populous city. This also led to the creation of the Shiv Sena in 1966, a political party whose political agenda was the safeguarding of the rights of the local Marathi speaking population, based on a policy of 'sons of the soil'. The city's secular fabric was torn apart in 1992, after large scale sectarian violence caused extensive loss of life and property. A few months later, on March 12, simultaneous bombings at several city landmarks by the Mumbai underworld killed around three hundred people. In 1995, the city was renamed Mumbai, primarily at the behest of the Shiv Sena, which was a part of the political coalition governing the state of Maharashtra at that time. This was in line with the Shiv Sena's policy of renaming colonial institutions after local entities. In 2006, Mumbai was also the site of a major terrorist incident in which over two hundred people were killed when several bombs exploded almost simultaneously on the Mumbai Suburban Railway.[8]
