Will Bengaluru’s Metro Yellow Line Start on January 6? BMRCL Clarifies Rumors

Bengaluru residents have long awaited the start of train services on the Metro Yellow Line, connecting RV Road to Bommasandra. Despite the completion of construction months ago, operations remain delayed, leaving citizens eager for updates. Recently, rumors circulated on social media suggesting that train services on the Yellow Line would begin on January 6, 2025. However, BMRCL has clarified the situation.

BMRCL’s Official Statement

In an official statement, BMRCL dismissed the rumors, stating that no decision has been made regarding the commencement of services on the Yellow Line. The rumors circulating online are false.

“The news that the metro train will start serving the public on the Yellow Line from RV Road to Bommasandra on January 6, 2025, is false information.

When Will the Metro Yellow Line Be Operational?

Services on the Yellow Line were originally expected to begin in December 2024, but delays in the supply of driverless metro trains have pushed back the launch date.

A set of driverless metro trains recently arrived from China and underwent a successful test run. However, the unavailability of sufficient trains has hindered the line’s opening.

Efforts to Resolve Delays

Bangalore South MP Tejasvi Surya expressed his disappointment over the delays in a detailed statement. He attributed the delays to issues such as the unavailability of trains and other logistical challenges.

Surya shared updates on progress:

• The first train will be unveiled on January 6, 2025, and delivered to Bengaluru.
• The second train is expected by late January or early February, and the third by April.
• From September 2025, two trains per month will be supplied.

Efforts are underway to expedite production and delivery, ensuring the Yellow Line begins operations as soon as possible.

Stay tuned for updates on the Metro Yellow Line, a critical addition to Bengaluru’s public transport infrastructure.
