Vandalism Hits Metro Express: Rs70,000 Stolen from Ticket Machines

The Metro Express has fallen victim to a spate of vandalism, leaving several ticket machines rendered inoperative. Over the past few days, a brazen duo, their faces obscured by hoods, has repeatedly targeted these vital pieces of infrastructure, causing significant damage.

In a further blow to the beleaguered transport system, a theft occurred in the early hours of this morning at the Trianon station, with the haul estimated at a staggering Rs 70,000.

The authorities have launched an investigation into this audacious crime, seeking to bring the perpetrators to justice.

In light of these troubling incidents, Metro Express Ltd has announced a strategic shift towards contactless payment solutions.

This transition aims to foster a cashless environment, encouraging passengers to conduct their transactions via bank cards or other electronic means.

As the company grapples with the aftermath of these attacks, it remains steadfast in its commitment to enhancing the safety and convenience of its services for the public.
