On Tuesday, Union Home Minister Rajnath Singh and Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath flagged off the first metro train in Lucknow. Wednesday was the first day for the people of Lucknow to ride inside the much awaited public transport but it didn’t go well.

People were excited to ride the Metro but the excitement got shattered when the train stopped abruptly due to technical glitches. About 500 passengers got stuck inside the second Metro train, panicking as the lights and air conditioner went off. The technical team took more than an hour to resolve the problem.

The glitch has been resolved and we hope that an amount as huge as Rs 6,00,080 crore that was spent in Lucknow Metro Project didn’t disappoint us.
