It’s going to be a momentous occasion on March 6, 2024, as the country is all set to get its first-ever underwater metro service in Kolkata. If reports are to go by, Prime Minister Narendra Modi will be inaugurating the underwater metro service, which will usher in a new era of urban transportation.
This event will not only mark a monumental stride in transforming how people travel in the city, but will also help them to save time and avoid traffic jams.
The remarkable thing about this groundbreaking initiative is the remarkable 16.6 km metro tunnel beneath the Hooghly River, which is indeed an engineering excellence.
