The first breakthrough in the 21-km tunnel being constructed between Bandra-Kurla Complex (BKC) in Mumbai and Shilphata in Thane for the Mumbai-Ahmedabad bullet train project has been achieved, the National High Speed Rail Corporation Limited (NHSRCL) announced on Thursday. This marks a major milestone in India’s first high-speed rail initiative, which aims to significantly cut travel time between the two major financial centres.
