Thanks Aveek,,,,
At present, Mumbai has only a 40 mins distance, single line of metro from Ghatkopar to Versova. But the Development Authority has also accepted 2 new detailed projects, one for the 16.5 km Andheri East to Dahisar East Metro Corridor and the other for 18.6 km Dahisar to D.N. Nagar Metro Corridor.

Right Sadhana......
And it is prepared by the Delhi Metro Rail Corporation and has recommended these 2 corridors estimated at Rs. 4737 crore and Rs. 4994 crore respectively for the approval of the state government. The Authority has put forward this matter to the State raising of funds from various financial institutions such as World Bank, Japan International Cooperation Agency and other national and international financial institutions.

Hi everybody,

Hi Praveen,
Do you think that price fixed is reasonable? When is the hearing date?

Well Ashish,
I don't think that anybody will be happy with that price. Even the Maharashtra chief minister Prithviraj Chavan said he would inaugurate the service only if the operator Mumbai Metro One agreed to stick to the “original” tariff quoted in the tender.
The matter is slated to be heard on Monday.

@Praveen,
But Debashish Mohanty, a director of MMOPL told that they would go ahead with the launch of the service on the 11.4-km line from Versova in the western suburbs to Ghatkopar in the east through Andheri on Sunday even if the chief minister did not come for the inauguration.

Hi all,
Row over fares for the Mumbai Metro project between the Maharashtra government and Reliance Infrastructure . MMRDA has already approached the Bombay High Court on Monday asking it to hear its plea against the fare hike by Reliance Infrastructure for the Mumbai Metro

Yep, you are right.....
The Mumbai Metropolitan Region Development Authority is understood to be define the costs incurred by Reliance Infrastructure to understand how exactly the operating costs have risen. Why are they not hire any independent organization to set up the price?

Well Sunil,
The MMRDA appointed Louis Berger Group, an independent organization who has submitted their report, which is being studied, without announcing any details.

@kishore,
The MMRDA's conclusions will assume significance role as Reliance-Infra told that the fares have been fixed under slabs of Rs 10/20/30/40, primarily because of a sharp increase in the operating costs.

Earlier in the day, the services on the 11.4 km Versova-Andheri-Ghatkopar section, connecting the western and eastern suburbs, were launched by Mumbai CM along with ADAG chairman Anil Ambani and his wife Tina Ambani at 10.10 am.

With the launch of Mumbai metro, Mumbai becomes the fourth city in the country to have metro rail operations, besides Kolkata, Delhi and Bangalore.
