Prime Minister Narendra Modi Friday flagged off two Vande Bharat trains from Mumbai to Shirdi and Solapur. Mr. Modi first flagged off the CSMT-Solapur Vande Bharat Express and then another semi-high-speed train connecting the financial centre to Sainagar Shirdi shrine town in the Ahmednagar district at an event at Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj Terminus in south Mumbai. Additionally, he opened two MMRDA projects. The PM will also open the Aljamea-tus-Saifiyah Arabic Academy’s Mumbai campus, which is situated in Marol in the western suburbs. The timing of his second trip to Mumbai coincides with the upcoming Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation elections.
