BENGALURU: After resisting the temptation to plaster the exterior of its rolling stock with advertisements for more than a decade, Bangalore Metro Rail Corporation Limited (BMRCL) on Friday unveiled a train swaddled with photographs and slogans highlighting the freedom struggle as part of Azadi Ka Amrit Mahotsav to mark 75 years of Independence.
BMRCL managing director Anjum Parwez flagged off the Purple Line train from Majestic Metro Station at 10.15am. The corporation spent around Rs 8.5 lakh on the wrapping exercise, which was completed in 10 days.
