Bengaluru Green Line Metro Disruption Impacts Thousands

Bengaluru’s Namma Metro Green Line was disrupted by a power outage during the morning peak, forcing short-loop operations between Silk Institute and Yeshwanthpur and suspending services on the Yeshwanthpur–Madavara and Yeshwanthpur–Nagasandra segments. Public transit authorities said technical teams were working on a war footing to restore normal operations, and power was restored with normal revenue services resuming across the Green Line by about 8:45 am. Commuters faced delays and had to seek alternative transport options as the outage affected one of the system’s busiest corridors. The disruption was widely reported across multiple outlets, highlighting its impact on peak-hour commuters. Officials emphasized their appreciation for passenger patience while restoration work continued, and noted that services returned to normal once power was restored.
