'''Uttan''' is a coastal town just north of [[Mumbai]] in [[Thane district]] of Maharashtra. A coastal town, it comes under the jurisdiction of the [[Mira-Bhayandar Municipal Corporation]]. Part Jurisdiction is also handed over to the Mumbai Meteropolitan Region Development Authority ([[MMRDA]]). However the locals have been opposing it, since the Tourism Plan proposed by the MMRDA will hamper the peace and tranquility of the locals. The area is famed for its beach, and fresh fish stock, visited by city-goers over the weekend. It is also famous for its lighthouse. The area has a significant [[East Indians|East Indian Catholic]] and Muslims population.{{Citation needed|date=December 2018}}<br />
