Mumbai Metro Line 11 Project Faces Environmental, Social Challenges
Mumbai is planning a new metro line called Line 11.
This project will require building tunnels and stations.
However, it will also impact the environment and people's homes.
Over two thousand trees may need to be moved, and about 800 buildings will be affected.
Sadly, the construction may also impact some old religious buildings.
The government is asking for feedback from the public.
This helps them make changes to the project before they start.
They also need to buy land from people to build this project.
Mumbai Metro Line 11 (Wadala-Gateway of India) is planned.
Over 2,200 trees and nearly 800 structures will be impacted.
Four religious sites, including Jain temples, will be affected.
Public consultation on the project is open until August 20.
The project requires land acquisition, including private property.
