The Navi Mumbai Municipal Transport (NMMT) has strengthened its public transport network by inducting 51 new compressed natural gas (CNG) buses into service, marking a major step towards environmentally friendly and modern public transportation. The new buses were inaugurated at the Ghansoli depot by Maharashtra Forest Minister Ganesh Naik on Sunday.

Ganesh Naik Praises NMMT's Growth And Revenue Efforts

Addressing the gathering, Naik said the transport undertaking has effectively utilised its available resources to improve revenue generation and has the potential to emerge as the best bus service not only in Maharashtra but across the country. Referring to the state's 50 per cent fare concession for women, he also expressed hope that students would eventually receive a 100 per cent fare concession.

The addition of the new CNG buses is expected to significantly improve connectivity on routes linking Navi Mumbai with Panvel, Uran, Khopoli, Kalyan-Dombivli, Borivali and the upcoming Navi Mumbai International Airport. Officials said the use of cleaner CNG fuel will help reduce air pollution while providing passengers with a safer, more comfortable and reliable travel experience.
