Mumbai Metro Line 11 Proposal Submitted for Approval
Imagine a new subway line being planned in Mumbai!
It's called Metro Line 11, and it will be completely underground.
This new line will connect different parts of Mumbai, from the eastern side to the Gateway of India.
The plan has been sent to the government for approval.
It will cost a lot of money and will be an extension of an existing line.
When it is finished, it will help people travel faster and make it easier to get around.
The route will pass through many busy areas, and a car depot will be built for the new line.

The 17.4-km underground line will connect Anik Depot in Sion to the Gateway of India.
The estimated cost of the project is ₹23,487 crore.
