While there is sure to be a race amongst eager Mumbaikars to be the first to travel in the country’s first monorail between Wadala and Chembur on Sunday, the Mumbai Metropolitan Region Development Authority (MMRDA) has raised the bar, saying that the mantle will not be conferred on the first citizen to buy the ticket.
The officials said that the person who gets inside any of the four rakes before others would be considered the first commuter of the monorail. Speaking to MiD DAY, MMRDA Commissioner UPS Madan said, “It’s not the person who buys the first ticket for the monorail, but the one who enters before others, who will be declared the first commuter of the monorail.
