Travel could get easier for Mumbaikars. Operations of the Mumbai Metro, on the Versova-Andheri-Ghatkopar metro line, were announced on October 15, and will be open to all except those who are unwell. The service will run between 8.30 am and 8.30 pm. The good news for metro card holders is that they would be able to use the existing balance on their cards by updating the card at the customer care desks at the stations.

Speaking about the move, Abhay Kumar Mishra, CEO MMOPL and President Transportation, said, "The services will begin after seven months. We have taken important measures and all the norms of social distancing will be followed. We want the support of the commuters."
