PM Modi will be inaugurating the KR Puram-Whitefield metro line on March 25 in Bengaluru. The recently inaugurated Bengaluru-Mysore expressway by PM Modi received several criticism and also witnessed multiple protests over its inauguration allegedly before completion.
“All trains and tacks have speed limit, if you go above that it might cause accidents. During train test, it was observed that targeted speed does not meet permitted speed then why is Mr Modi inaugurating it?” Congress leader Randeep Surjewala said during a press conference.

“All train have evacuation plan, walkways and emergency doors, a letter records that some of the evacuation walkways are missing. Why are you Inaugurating it Modi? Why are you endangering people of Bengaluru?” he said.

“The Purple Line of Namma Metro is being extended from Baiyappanahalli to the Whitefield IT corridor. The extension of this metro line is running late by three years, Mr Surjewala said addressing a media conference in Bengaluru.

Congress general secretary Randeep Singh Surjewala claimed that Prime Minister Narendra Modi will inaugurate a metro line of Namma Metro, which is ‘discontinuous, disjointed and disconnected’, and will cause more problems to Bengalureans than it will solve. The PM will be inaugurating a half-baked metro line between K.R. Puram and Whitefield on March 25, he claimed.

“The only yield will be a media event of the Prime Minister riding a standalone metro that is disconnected from the existing metro line. It will endanger public safety,” the Congress leader claimed on March 21.

Addressing a media conference in Bengaluru, Mr Surjewala said, “The Purple Line of Namma Metro is being extended from Baiyappanahalli to the Whitefield IT corridor. The extension of this metro line is running late by three years. “Why is PM Modi inaugurating an incomplete metro line, more so, when it has no connectivity on either side — K.R. Puram metro station or Whitefied metro station?

PM Modi will visit poll-bound Karnataka on March 25 to inaugurate Sri Madhusudan Sai Institute of Medical Sciences and Research in Chikkaballapur. The Prime Minister will fly back to Bengaluru in the afternoon to inaugurate the Whitefield metro line and will ride in the metro. He will then head to Davangere to address a public meeting, proceed to Shivamogga and depart for Delhi from Shivamogga airport.
