I am trying to understand the intent and motivation behind this tweet," one of the users wrote. While replying to the social media user, the author of the post wrote, "Have not used metro before this in Bangalore or Chennai".
"I have been traveling in Metro for a long time in Bangalore. And trust me, once you experience this convenience, there's no going back!!!" another user wrote. However, some of the users also pointed out that though the metro is time saving, it is crowded most of the times.
"Metro is more time saving but must say Bangalore metro is always crowded, best time to travel early morning or post 9pm," stated one of the users. Earlier on Thursday, the BMRCL stated that the authorities are planning to expand the metro operations.
