Mumbai Live News Updates, 11 December 2022: Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Sunday flagged off the sixth Vande Bharat Express train connecting Nagpur to Bilaspur. During the event, PM Modi also laid the foundation for redevelopment of the Nagpur and Ajni railway stations.

During his visit to Maharashtra, PM Modi also inaugurated the first phase of the Mumbai-Nagpur Hindu Hrudaysamrat Balasaheb Thackeray Samruddhi Expressway — a 520-km stretch connecting Nagpur and Shirdi in Ahmednagar. The six-lane expressway is the second greenfield expressway in the state after the Mumbai-Pune one. The entire 701-km project connecting Mumbai to Nagpur is expected to be completed by July 2023. Later, in the day, he will also be visiting Goa.
