点评:It is after a long time that I used the Metro in Kolkata. We boarded at the Esplanade station and got down at Shahid Khudiram( overground). This is one of the few lines operational in the city. The stations were fairly clean and less crowded being a Saturday perhaps. The coaches were well-maintained, air-conditioning very good and signage’s and announcements adequate. There are places for senior citizen to sit but they were mostly occupied by youngsters. What is great about the ride was it took us less than 30 minutes but by car would have taken about an hour. And living up to Kolkata’s tradition it cost us only Rs 20 for the trip. However there were issues in the scanning of the QR code in the ticket Surprisingly people were fairly quiet in the coaches which is rare for Kolkata. Here’s to the oldest metro in India👍.
