Some hard truths Bengaluru must know:
- Phase 2 cost sharing between Centre & State still unresolved.
- Phase 3 MoU not yet signed
- Phase 3a killed by Tunnel Roads
- Blue & Pink Line incomplete
- Coach shortages
- Unfair fares
And BMRCL talks about Phase 4!
Audacious.
Bengaluru Metro's 215-km Phase 4 plan prioritises suburbs, core city takes a back seat

London is so cruel, isn't it Bengaluru?
They don't care about cars.
Our leaders are spending multi billion dollars for cars & silly London only thinks about moving people.
Our leaders also have so planned that pedestrians or cyclists can never enter Tunnel & elevated roads
Dear Bengaluru citizens,
Please spread the word on Nagara 🙏🏽
After a long time Bengaluru is able to get fair fare metered rides. We mustn't lose this.
More searches means more drivers online.
Therefore community support is the only way to solve ridehailing problems.
Thanks.
Now what's your excuse for not searching for Nagara?
Society shapes choices, Bengaluru.
Do we want fair fares?
Yes!!
Then let's not wait for Government to regulate better.
Let's actively encourage drivers who operate by meter fares!
Go Nagara Bengaluru!
Let's do it.
The needle has moved backwards on BMLTA via the Section 19 amendment.
Basically all B-SMILE projects are "pre-approved"
And why is DULT doing the CMP update?
What exactly is the condition of BMLTA?
Dead? Comatose?
Brilliant discovery by ASI.
Now it's our duty & responsibility to make sure it is restored and preserved for generations to come.
Fascinating news from Hampi.
ASI has unearthed a rare paired Vishnu and Shiva temple complex in the dvikuta (twin sanctum) style near the Lotus Mahal.
A major temple discovery after years.

A Movement That Begins on the Streets of Bengaluru!
Every poster we share carries a message.
Every driver we meet represents a change.
Every conversation brings us one step closer to a fairer mobility ecosystem.
At NAGARA, we believe that technology should make travel fair, transparent, and accessible for everyone.
No dynamic fares.
Just government-approved meter fares.
Fair Fares. Honest Rides. Always.
So what do want Bengaluru to be?
Compact and walkable?
Sprawl and car dependent?
Speakup & STOP the unscientific tunnel roads and elevated corridors.
@DULTBangalore - Please make public the CMP Inception Report. Why is BMLTA not doing this?

And that's exactly how it is calculated i.e. charged after 5 minutes limit only.
And by the way do check what you pay with other ridehailing operators. You'll be quite surprised. Algorithms are very clever to give a illusion to both drivers and commuters. The devil's in detail.
Instead of paying inscrutable surge fares it is fair to pay Govt. approved charges for trip waiting due to traffic. And they aren't much too. In the screenshot shown there is zero waiting fare.
And commuters who don't want to pay pick up charges, they can street hail.
Of course it is always a choice. Instead of paying variety of fares determined by algorithms paying fair fares every time is also preferred by many commuters.
The longest running joke is the conversation on partial Pink Line opening.
Commuters helplessly paying higher fare, slow speed on RV Road -Jayanatar section is not an issue,
BUT
gossip around inauguration date, Chief Guest is discussed ad infinitum.
Que sera sera Bengaluru
Update on #PinkLine opening
CMRS authorisation may come only next week as @OfficialBMRCL needs to submit some documents. Based on that, CMRS will give approval.
Whether the line opens on Nov 1 depends on how quickly PMO gives the date.
Next week will be critical.
