A statement by the Bengaluru Metro Rail Corporation Limited (BMRCL) said that metro services will start at 03.35 am, four-and-a-half hours earlier than the regular schedule, from all four terminals — Nagasandra, Silk Institute, Whitefield (Kadugodi), and Challaghatta metro stations.
During this early window, trains will operate at a frequency of 10 minutes from 03.35 am to 04.25 am.
