Metro’s mask rule under scanner after college girl run over by car
A 20-year-old college girl was run over by a car under the Pattanagere metro station while trying to cross the busy Mysuru Road on Thursday. She succumbed to her injuries on the spot.
A resident named Chaithanya Ganesh claimed that the Bengaluru Metro Rail Corporation Limited (BMRCL) “indirectly” contributed to the accident by insisting that pedestrians using the Pattanagere metro station overbridge wear masks.
Many citizens use the overbridge to cross the Bengaluru-Mysuru highway.
According to Ganesh, BMRCL security guards insist that pedestrians wear masks to use the metro station as an overbridge.
