In Mumbai, PM Modi will inaugurate the Atal Bihari Vajpayee Sewri-Nhava Sheva Atal Setu, the longest sea bridge in India. He will also lay the foundation stone of a underground road tunnel connecting Eastern Freeway’s Orange Gate to Marine Drive.

He will dedicate phase 1 of the Surya regional bulk drinking water project, developed at a cost of more than ₹1,975 crore. The project will benefit nearly 14 lakh people by providing drinking water supply to the Palghar and Thane district of Maharashtra, reported news agency ANI.

PM Modi will also dedicate about ₹2000-crore railway projects to the nation. The projects include the dedication of ‘Phase 2 of Uran-Kharkopar railway line’ which will improve connectivity to Navi Mumbai as suburban services running between Nerul/Belapur to Kharkopar will now be extended to Uran.
