Officials Propose Renaming Three Stations on Bengaluru Metro Pink Line
A bipartisan group of elected officials, including ministers, MPs, and MLAs, has submitted a proposal to the Union Ministry of Housing and Urban Affairs via Bangalore Metro Rail Corporation Limited to rename three stations on Bengaluru's Namma Metro Pink Line. The suggested changes are Tavarekere to Sudduguntepalya, J.P. Nagar 4th Phase to N.S. Palya, and IIMB to Bilekahalli or Bilekahalli-IIMB. The request precedes the inauguration of a 7.5-km elevated Pink Line section, expected in November, with Prime Minister Narendra Modi slated to inaugurate it.
