Major projects such as Mumbai Trans-Harbour Link & underground Colaba-Bandra-Seepz Metro taking shape in city. With Covid hitting work, Mumbai has become jungle of concrete & iron.
Nearly 3 years after the first breakthrough at Terminal 2, 16 more TBMs have finished creating almost 53 km of tunnels under Mumbai for the underground Colaba-Bandra-Seepz route.
Six metro lines are under construction in Mumbai and the initial work on three more is under way. But acquisition of land for most car depots is becoming a contentious issue.
Maharashtra CM Uddhav Thackeray says it's unfortunate that central govt has gone to court against his govt's decision to build the depot at Kanjurmarg.
Bombay HC stayed Maharashtra govt’s move to shift controversial car shed from Aarey Colony to Kanjurmarg, so now it’s considering alternative plots of land.
The metro reopened with a series of precautionary measures, such as thermal scanners, sanitisers, among others, to enable commuters to adhere to social distancing protocols.
Mumbai govt is planning to connect Colaba-Bandra-Seepz Metro with the proposed Kanjurmarg-Badlapur Metro and the Swami Samarth Nagar-Vikhroli elevated line.
Disenfranchisement by institutional fiat is profoundly undemocratic. The effect of the ECI's new documentary process in Bihar will tilt the scales in favour of the BJP.
Mini deal will likely see no cut in 10% baseline tariff on Indian exports announced by Trump on 2 April, it is learnt, but additional 26% tariffs are set to be reduced.
India-Russia JV is also racing to deliver 7,000 more AK-203 assault rifles by 15 Aug. These are currently being made with 50% indigenisation and this will surge to 100% by 31 December.
Public, loud, upfront, filled with impropriety and high praise sometimes laced with insults. This is what we call Trumplomacy. But the larger objective is the same: American supremacy.
