Excitement surges as Prime Minister Narendra Modi inaugurates Atal Setu, India's longest sea-bridge, with an enticing announcement – toll rates set at just Rs 250 for a one-way trip and Rs 375 for a round trip in the first year! PM Modi's symbolic journey from INS Shikara in Colaba marked the grand commencement. In Navi Mumbai, he dedicated three pivotal infrastructure projects, laying the foundation stone for another. This Rs 21,200 crore investment plan, unfolding over five years, not only enhances Atal Setu's accessibility but also integrates the city's waterfronts with tunnels and flyovers.
