Kolkata Metro has planned to conduct special services on the Blue Line (North-South corridor) on May 28, 2023, to guarantee that candidates taking the West Bengal Civil Services Preliminary test are not inconvenienced. “The Kolkata Metro will operate 16 additional services between Kavi Subhash and Dakshineswar for students taking the West Bengal Civil Services Preliminary Exam.” “As previously announced, the stretch of this Corridor between Mahanayak Uttam Kumar and Kavi Subhas will not see any Mega Blocks on that date,” said a Kolkata Metro official.
According to the official, Kolkata Metro would also provide special IPL midnight service on May 20, 2023. The Metro will begin service from Esplanade after the IPL T-20 match at 00:15 a.m. At 00:48 a.m., the special rake will arrive in Dakshineswar. At the Esplanade station’s booking counters, only Smart Cards and Tokens will be sold.
