Why it is the lifeline of Mumbai because we really don’t have options to travel. Mumbai is not yet ready to handle such large crowd by road. Only options left is Local which is fastest and cheapest compared to any cities. So from poor to rich , everyone will prefer locals.
Lol, it amazes me how brainwashed Mumbai people are that they consider sub standard infrastructure and pathetic transport arrangements as their lifeline. “Beggars can’t be choosers” saying comes to mind. The shape of mumbai and especially the fact that the suburbs exists only as glorified hostels for the main offices in mumbai mean that the local is the best worst option. Until and unless the suburbs become sef sufficient in therms of employment, this sorry state of affairs will continue and fools like you will continue to glorify your suffering lol.
