Overview
- The video shows a commuter stopped at Attiguppe station around 10:10 p.m. even though official services are listed until 11 p.m.
- The clip, shared on X by the Karnataka Portfolio account, quickly gained traction and drew national media coverage.
- Several users contended that only one entrance was shut and said many stations close lesser‑used gates after 10 p.m. as a COVID‑era staffing practice, with exits kept open.
- Critics called the closure unfair and inconvenient, citing longer late‑night walks and safety worries, with one user referencing an unanswered complaint from March 2024.
- BMRCL had not issued a statement at the time of reporting, leaving the mismatch between posted hours and gate access unresolved.
