The way Sachin Karpe describes Mumbai is by
calling it the money mine of India. The city located in state of Maharashtra in
the western part of India. The city located at the coast of the Arabian Sea and
the financial capital of India.
Mumbai is
not just the town and the western suburbs alone, with time it has expanded. Now
to get an idea of how big it is, in terms of the local train network it
comprises of the Western line, the Central line and the Harbor Line. Sachin Karpe based on his experience
says that travelling in Mumbai by roads most times can get hectic and time
consuming. It’s not just the pain of travelling far distances but the main
reason being the traffic. To give you a gist of it there are close to 50,000
plus taxis and 2 lakh plus auto rickshaws. These are just the number of
private public transport vehicles running within the city excluding the cars
owned by people the BEST buses and other private transport vehicles.
The now left
is the most chosen mode of transport the Mumbai Locals. There has been a never ending argument
about the locals if they are the best way of mobility for the residents in
Mumbai. The answer to it is “Who cares, but it surely is the fastest way to
travel”. Covering a distance of approximately 300 km and 6 million plus
travelers daily, not many would debate the point on if it’s the best.
The locals a
good deal in terms of time and cost effectiveness, except a few factors like leaving
the comfort aspect and the fight to get into them at peak hours and the optimal
use of space which we have mastered. Sachin Karpe emphasis on the point that
Mumbai locals to any and everyone from worker to a white collar is no doubts
the fastest and the most reliable moving
object in the city of dreams where money and time are valued the most.
