The Mumbai Metro Line 2A&7, which run on the east and west side of the suburbs between Andheri and Dahisar on the Western Express Highway and Link Road, feature the city’s first stations that are being operated by women staffers.
Akurli on line 2A and Eksar on line 7 are now being managed by women employees. This is an initiative taken by the Mumbai Metropolitian Region Development Authority (MMRDA) and Maha Mumbai Metro Rail Operation Corporation (MMMOCL).
The Mumbai division suburban railway had initiated this concept at its Matunga station to bridge the gender gap. This also helped the railways to get their name in the Limca book of records.
