VOICED : New Mumbai metro will beat traffic but at what cost?

Mumbai's traffic congestion is a major issue, and authorities are hopeful that a new metro system will alleviate the problem. The metro, costing $4 billion, is expected to be completed by December 2021 and will reduce road congestion and ease the burden on the suburban railway. However, the project faces opposition from environmentalists concerned about the impact on urban forests and the indigenous Warli community. The government insists that the depot will not lead to further construction, while the metro project continues to progress.
