Bangalore Metro passengers demand better connectivity and services

The Bangalore Metro and Suburban Rail Passenger’s Association has renewed calls for better last-mile connectivity and affordable fares. They met with Namma Metro's Managing Director to discuss integrating buses and e-vehicles at metro stations. Key demands include introducing a National Common Mobility Card for easier travel, restoring fare discounts, and improving metro station facilities. The association also seeks a monthly pass system with student concessions. Frustration over slow progress has led the association to urge immediate action, stating that these improvements could increase ridership and lessen dependence on private vehicles.
