Debjit Mukherjee, Howrah: Union Minister for Women and Child Development Smriti Irani on Monday inaugurated the underground Sealdah Metro Railway station of East West Metro corridor in the city through virtual mode from Howrah Maidan station. The programme was held amidst controversy over invitation to Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee and was not attended by the local TMC MLA and MPs.
At the programme, she said “The full length of the East West Metro corridor will be completed by 2023”.
“The extension to Sealdah will help around 35,000 passengers in their daily commute from adjoining districts” she said.
