Metro Aqua Line tunnel damaged due to unauthorised borewell digging in South Mumbai

MUMBAI: (Mar 19) Drilling of an unauthorised borewell in south Mumbai by a private water supplier earlier this month led to a small breach in a tunnel of Aqua Line, the only underground Metro corridor in the city, officials said on Wednesday.


The Mumbai Metro Rail Corporation (MMRC) lodged a complaint with the police against the private water supplier for damaging a portion of the Metro Line-3 tunnel while carrying out unauthorised borewell drilling near Metro Cinema.
