Kolkata Metro waiting for Centre’s nod

Metro Railway is awaiting instructions from the ministry of railways, ministry of home affairs and the Union ministry of health and family welfare before taking any step. On Monday, the metro authorities made it clear that maintaining social distance inside stations and in trains, will be a major challenge. 
On Friday, Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee had announced that the Metro can resume services from July 1 with certain restrictions. The state’s efforts to cajole private bus operators to run services by offering them subsidies, doesn’t seem to have had it’s desired effect.
