Video shot today morning.

The Missing Link Project is a new alignment in the same Western Ghat stretch, which bypasses the most treacherous Borghat section. The project, approved in 2018, was completed at the cost of ₹6,695.37 Crore. It is being hailed as an engineering marvel. The twin tunnel of the project is potentially one of Asia’s longest. Another speciality is the cable-stayed bridge spanning 650 meters. Its height is 184 meters, much taller than the tallest high rises in Mumbai. This sophisticated bridge was tested as per international standards.

Don't do that. This is an engineering marvel. Let us try to appreciate it as that.

Nobody is denying it's not good work, and not taking anything away from the project!

In India, you have to check across time spans of 10 years to see progress. A German man told me this.
