Bangalore Metro Rail Corporation Ltd. stopped operations to rescue a bird from its tracks on Thursday.
Vasantha Rao, General Manager (Finance), BMRCL, said an injured adult kite was found on the tracks near Yeswanthpur Metro Station on Reach-3. Train operator Santhiraj noticed the bird and informed the Operation Control Centre, which contacted the Forest Department whose staff member Rajesh Kumar rescued the bird.
