Bandra-Worli Sealink Opens in Mumbai

The 4.7km Bandra-Worli Sealink opened yesterday. It took over 8 years to build instead of 3 years which was scheduled. Due to the delay the cost went up 2 times to 852 cr. Instead of Rs.400 cr. Still only 1 side of the sealink is operational. My guess is that it will take another 8 [...]

Why Aliens? You may ask… well when no one in the Ministry has the [...]
