‘₹300 metro trip…’: Viral post slams Namma Metro fare hike, says driving is cheaper; sparks outrage

When Namma Metro was recently walking around its fares, the consequences were fast and sharp. Daily passengers, especially students and low-income groups, have started cheaper despite the slow, alternative alternative alternatives. Value growth has not come better services, as the rare service continues to disappoint the riders. Online, the return is gaining momentum, by publicly violating the fare raising their wallets and wasted their time.

Imagining the growing frustration, one passenger shares a typical day’s journey from Chikkabidarakallu to JP Nagar.

“I had to go to JP Nagar from Chickabidar. The journey will cost me

Car from Home to Metro Station – 70
Metro from Chikkabidarakallu from RV Road – ₹ 80
Walk from RV road to destination – ₹ 0 (but took 13 minutes)
Return walk – 13 minutes
Return Metro – ₹ 80:
Return the last mile – ₹ 70
Total – ₹ 300

If I was moving from home to the destination, my value would be ₹ 250 without walking, climbing and down the stairs, do you not expect cottages?

“In general, driving your own car is time and money saves. It should not be public transport, especially in the inhabited city centers in Bengaluru, “added the user.

The post hit the chord very quickly.

“Forget about the last mile connection, there is no enough parking lot for two-wheel meters,” said one user.

One added:

The conversation also touched upon the comfort and access to buses. “We are seriously lacking the last mile in the city,” one user wrote. “Everyone encourages the use of public transport, but no one talks about the crowd and anxiety. Our buses (especially the low floor) make up people over the age of 45 who have sudden subsoil and narrow corridors.
