  • The proposed Pune-Mumbai Hyperloop project may be scrapped by the Maharashtra state government.
  • It is an ultra-modern transport system that will reduce the travelling time between the two cities to 25 minutes from 2.5-3 hours.
  • The state has expressed reservations about the project that was still in its experimental stage, and had not been “implemented anywhere in the world”.

  • It is a transportation system where a pod-like vehicle is propelled through a near-vacuum tube connecting cities at speeds matching that of an aircraft.
  • The hyperloop concept is a brainchild of Tesla founder Elon Musk.
