The metro rail will resume operation from Saturday without stopping at two stations - Mirpur section 10 and Kazipara - that were vandalised during quota reform movement last month.

The Advisory Council of the interim government took the decision on Sunday.

"The metro rail will start running from Saturday, August 17. The rail, however, will not stop at the damaged stations Kazipara and Mirpur-10 till repair is completed," meeting sources said.

On July 19 last, the Mirpur-10 and Kazipara metro stations were vandalised and everything - from vending machines to ticket counters were badly damaged.

The first metro rail was formally inaugurated on December 28, 2022.

The metro trains carry about 2.70 lakh passengers on an average every day on Uttara-Motijheel route.
