Chennai Metro Rail&#8217;s Blue Line, which runs between the Wimco Nagar Depot and the Airport, faced a technical glitch during the early morning hours.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">WATCH THE VIDEO HERE: <\/h2>\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-media-max-width=\"560\">\n<p dir=\"ltr\" lang=\"en\">A metro train in Chennai was halted between the High Court and Puratchi Thalaivar Metro stations amid rain in the city.<\/p>\n<p>Immediate evacuation was done, and the train was promptly withdrawn from the line.<\/p>\n<p>Normal operations resumed thereafter. <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/BGTTCiln9z\">pic.twitter.com\/BGTTCiln9z<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u2014 Vani Mehrotra (@vani_mehrotra) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/vani_mehrotra\/status\/1995688542128013627?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">December 2, 2025<\/a><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Commuters walk towards nearby metro station<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The video showed commuters holding onto the handrail while trying to look out to understand the issue. After being stuck for at least 10 minutes, passengers said that metro authorities announced that they should walk to the nearby metro station, located just 500 meters away, that is High Court station.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Metro services return to normal<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>In yet another video, commuters were spotted lining up and walking through the tunnel.
