"India's Longest Sea Bridge Transforms Mumbai's Infrastructure Landscape"

TL;DR Summary
India's Prime Minister Narendra Modi is set to inaugurate the 22-km Atal Setu bridge, the country's longest, as part of a $1 trillion infrastructure push aimed at boosting jobs and keeping pace with modernizing economies like China. The infrastructure drive includes projects such as a new airport, light rail line, and highways, with a focus on public utilities and a business-to-consumer approach. While public financing is strong, there are concerns about the sustainability of relying solely on public expenditure, and the need to attract more private sector investment and wider financial support for a sustained infrastructure push.
