Joka BBD Bag Metro: পার্ক স্ট্রিটে আসবে নয়া মেট্রো, ২৯টি বিশাল গাছের নতুন ঠিকানা কোথায়?

plan to transplant 29 trees to Kamar Danga near Beleghata. Experts from IIT Guwahati will provide technical support for this transplantation process. The Esplanade station location remains uncertain as the existing East West Metro station has already taken up most of the available space. The Metro is also considering an alternative location in Park Street if no suitable space is found at the proposed site near Bidhan Market. The Purple Line project is aiming for completion by December 2026, despite the ongoing challenges.

Kolkata Metro ke Purple Line mein Esplanade station banaane mein kaafi dikkat aa rahi hai. Station ko Brigade Parade Ground mein banaya jaana chahta tha, lekin waha pe bohot purane aur important trees hain, jiske wajah se virodh ho raha hai.

29 trees ko Kamar Danga, Beleghata ke paas transplant karne ka plan banaya hai. IIT Guwahati ke experts is transplant process mein technical support denge. Esplanade station ki location abhi bhi clear nahi hai, kyunki East West Metro station ne waha pe jaada space le liya hai. Agar Bidhan Market ke paas koi space nahi milta hai, to Metro Park Street mein alternative location bhi consider kar raha hai. Purple Line project December 2026 tak complete hone ka target hai, iske baad bhi kaafi challenges aa rahe hain.

These days, apparently, users are quitting FaceBook in droves because...
