    In the Konkan region there are plenty of minerals, coconut

    fields and mango orchards and preserving the ecosystem

    was an engineering challenge and environmental chal-

    lenge. In order to preserve the landscape, the line made

    use of tunnels so that they would not have to destroy agri-

    cultural land. To further the cause of environmental sus-

    tainability all stations along the way have banned the use

    of plastic in the form of cups, bags, and cutlery.
