Bengaluru Man Denied Entry at Metro Station Despite Last Train Timing
A resident of Bengaluru was refused entry at Attiguppe metro station at 10:10 PM, although the last metro departs at 11 PM. This incident caught public attention amid the city's frequent stories blending technology, urban challenges, and quirky moments, often called “Peak Bengaluru moments.”
Incident Details
A video on X shows a man claiming that Namma Metro staff stopped him from entering the station past 10 PM. This sparked debates about metro operations and passenger convenience.
"Security denied admission to Namma Metro station at 10:10 PM! A passenger at Attiguppe Metro Station was denied admittance at 10:10 PM, despite the fact that the metro’s official hours are till 11 p.m. How can the authorities defend such obvious contempt for their own schedule?"
"If the metro operates until 11 p.m., passengers should be allowed entry until the last train — not turned away arbitrarily by staff. This type of mismanagement and lack of accountability reflect negatively on BMRCL and the city’s otherwise world-class image."
Public Reaction
Local commuters have expressed concern, suggesting the staff may want to end their duties early, complicating travel plans for passengers relying on the metro’s official schedule.
