UNLOCK 5: Mumbai Metro Service and Public libraries to be opened on 15th October

Tomorrow, the Mumbai Metro Rail will open for public use of transport. The Maharashtra Government announced today that the Metro Rail will operate and also mentioned that the public libraries will also be opening.

Though the government has asked for precautionary measures for the opening, the opening will be in a very guarded manner. Along with the metro and public libraries, business-to-business exhibitions, animal marketplaces and supermarkets will be opened. Markets and shops will stay open from 9 am to 9 pm.
