On 22 July, the CMRS conducted an inspection of Reach 5 and completed one-fourth of the overall assessment.BMRCL Chief Public Relations Officer Yashwant Chavan said, “The inspection will be completed in the next 3-4 days,” adding that once the CMRS clears the line, final authorisation for passenger services will be granted. As reported by The New Indian Express.
Once the approvals from the CMRS are secured, the BMRCL is expected to finalise operational activities following consultations with both the Union and State governments of Karnataka.
Bengaluru Central MP PC Mohan commented, “CMRS inspection of the Yellow Line began on Tuesday, three years after BMRCL missed its 2021 deadline. With 16 stations from RV Road to Bommasandra, it is crucial for ORR commuters. But 10 MDs in 22 years slowed progress. Namma Metro deserves steady hands, not shifting chairs.”As reported by The New Indian Express.
