PM Modi Inaugurates 7.5-Km Elevated Stretch of Bengaluru Metro Pink Line
Prime Minister Narendra Modi inaugurated the 7.5-km elevated stretch of Bengaluru's Namma Metro Pink Line on November 13, extending the city's metro network beyond 100 km. The new section connects Kalena Agrahara to Tavarekere with six stations and will open to the public on November 14. The Pink Line will eventually span 21.25 km, including an underground section expected by 2027. The Jayadeva Hospital station serves as a key interchange, enhancing connectivity across south Bengaluru. Some stations were renamed following local requests. Commuters await completion of the underground segment for full route benefits.
