Hailing the western metropolis as a symbol of new India's hope, Manmohan Singh said terrorists wanted to destroy the dream of transforming Mumbai into a truly global city but they will never succeed. "We will build Mumbai into a truly global city. It is at that dream that the terrorists struck (but) they will never succeed but Mumbai will," Singh said at a meeting with the industrialists and representatives of the entertainment industry.
Mumbai, he added, "symbolises the hopes of new India" and the country will spare no efforts to tackle terrorism and will ensure that such strikes are not repeated. "I salute the people of Maharashtra for their enterprise and creativity," he said.
Commuters at Santacruz are advised to avoid the following routes that will be cordoned off from 1 pm to 2 pm for the PM's convoy to pass through. They are the Hans Bhugra junction, Vidyanagari junction, Kalina Church junction and the Military Camp junction at Vakola. To avoid inconvenience, the traffic police have advised commuters to use the Bandra Kurla complex road and Andheri-Kurla road instead.
