A Cheetah on the Stairs: Mumbai Stations Get Colourful Makeovers

A Cheetah on the Stairs: Mumbai Stations Get Colourful Makeovers
If you happen to be getting off or onto a Mumbai local at the Borivali and Khar stations, take a look around you. Paintings of soldiers here, animals there, and trees of various kinds, all in bright colours, cover the different walls and the staircases.

As many as 500 volunteers working with the NGO Make a Difference (MAD) have given the stations cheerful makeovers, reports ANI. Schoolchildren and working professionals alike helped to decorate ticket windows, stairs, overhead bridges and other areas of the station.
 

Volunteers first made blue prints for their designs and then proceeded to give the railway stations their facelifts. Themes for their artwork include national parks and highways, along with the Gorai beach and Mandeshwar areas, the news agency reports.
 

Railway Minister Suresh Prabhu will soon formally inaugurate the work done by the NGO.
