People Power ✊🏽! Today, on March 9, exactly a month after the unjust Namma Metro fare hike, commuters took over 'Namma' Metro to remind us that it should be 'OUR' metro. The clear DEMAND——@OfficialBMRCL #RevokeMetroFareHike
A month after the metro hike , commuters and citizens in Bengaluru came together, inside the city's metro, calling for an immediate rollback of the recent fare hike.

Metro now costs more than a one-time meal for nearly 1 in 3 commuters. A 13% drop in ridership & a 20% drop in February alone show how fare hikes push people off public transport—ALL AT THE COST OF INCREASING POLLUTION AND CONGESTION .@OfficialBMRCL #RevokeMetroFareHike
.@GreenpeaceIndia's latest survey——For 72.9% of commuters, daily transport COSTS AS MUCH AS A MEAL. No one should have to choose between getting to work and affording a meal.

.@GreenpeaceIndia's latest survey——68% say the fare hike has made commuting costlier—forcing them to walk more, cut family time, & burn a hole in their wallets.@OfficialBMRCL #RevokeMetroFareHike .@ChristinMP_ .@Suchithkidiyoor .@bhavibee
ONE MONTH LATER, the damage is clear. The fare hike is pushing people off public transport, worsening traffic and AQI, and hurting the city's working class. We DEMAND not just a reversal, but a reduction in fares. .@OfficialBMRCL #RevokeMetroFareHike
Politicians are busy playing blame games over the Bengaluru Metro fare hike—but commuters are paying the price! We DEMAND a Metro Fund with contributions from the state & centre to ensure affordable fares! .@OfficialBMRCL #RevokeMetroFareHike

Bengaluru now has the MOST EXPENSIVE metro fares in India. A worker earning ₹10,000/month now would spend ₹2,500+ on the metro alone. How can this be called "public" transport if the public can't afford it? .@OfficialBMRCL #RevokeMetroFareHike .@clifroz
🚨 RAISING FARES = RAISES INEQUALITY🚨 When public transport becomes unaffordable, already disadvantaged groups are further pushed out of public spaces .@OfficialBMRCL #RevokeMetroFareHike
A public transport system is only as good as its accessibility. Bengaluru Metro’s fare hike has made public transport unaffordable for many. Can we even call it ‘Namma’ anymore? .@OfficialBMRCL #RevokeMetroFareHike
Ridership dropped; air POLLUTION rose! By prioritising profits, Namma Metro is doing itself a disservice by disincentivising public transport use. Public transport is a public good, NOT a profit-making venture! .@OfficialBMRCL #RevokeMetroFareHike
Pollution levels in Bengaluru have risen as Metro use dips after the fare hike .@OfficialBMRCL How can you justify this move? Higher public transport fares = More private vehicles = More congestion = More pollution. #RevokeMetroFareHike bit.ly/3Fm9vGZ
ONE MONTH was all it took for the DAMAGE to show. Ridership has plummeted since the Feb 9 fare hike, while traffic and pollution soar. The dream of 1 million daily riders? A distant memory. @OfficialBMRC #RevokeMetroFareHike .@Suchithkidiyoor ctt.ec/s8e0h+
It's been a MONTH since the Namma Metro Fare Hike. Ridership has crashed. Commuters are suffering. Pollution is rising. Pricing people out of public transport is NOT a mobility solution—it’s a policy failure .@OfficialBMRCL #RevokeMetroFareHike .@BBPVedike .@PranavBalakrish

The government is destroying the Dwarka forest cover in the name of development, despite the simultaneous challenges of extreme heatwaves and poor air quality.

Vande Bharat mission is great but making Vande Bharat Park by destroying biodiversity is not a great idea. Please rethink your decision #savedwarkaforest #savedelhi @PrakashJavdekar @narendramodi @ArvindKejriwal @AmitShah @PMOIndia @savegreendwarka
