[Spartan]

Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Wednesday will once again visit West Bengal. He will inaugurate and lay the foundation stone of several development projects worth Rs 15,400 crores in Kolkata.

He is set to inaugurate India’s first under-river tunnel by flagging off a metro train between Howrah Maidan and Esplanade in Kolkata. Of the 4.8 km-long tunnel between the two stations, the distance of 1.2 km is 30 metres below the Hooghly river, which makes the train the nation’s first under river transportation tunnel.

Later, the prime minister will also address a public meeting in Barasat.

After Kolkata, PM Modi will visit Bihar’s Bettiah, where he will inaugurate, dedicate and lay the foundation stone of multiple development projects worth around Rs 8,700 crores.
