Maharashtra Chief Minister Eknath Shinde and Deputy CM Devendra Fadnavis flagged off the trial run

Before giving the green signal, Shinde and Fadnavis examined the Metro train

The Metro line 3, which will be a 33.5 km underground route, will connect south Mumbai with the western suburbs and is expected to reduce the burden on the suburban locals

The construction of Metro car shed at Aarey was one of the first decisions reversed by the Shinde-Fadnavis government
