Citizen groups take MEMU ride to airport
Citizen groups on Saturday gathered to ride on the MEMU service to Kempegowda International Airport (KIA) to promote its use. More than 100 people rode the train from the Cantonment railway station to KIA.
Rajkumar Dugar of Citizens for Citizens, who rode the train, told DH: “MEMU trains are the best mode of transport to the airport. At Rs 30, it is more economical than cabs and buses; it is safer and the only mode of transport with washrooms and ample space for bags.”
