Is it true that the number of people of Bangalore travelling in metro are decreasing?

Q: I heard that during the inauguration of the metro the crowd was very much but as the days are passing the crowd is also decreasing drastically. What is the reason that the number of passengers are decreasing?

Because of weekends and festivals the crowd was more as most of the offices were closed but the number of passengers are decreasing as metro is not available for the industrial routes like ITPL and more over to catch the metro people have to stand on big lines which is not possible for the people going to office, so they will prefer to go by buses. It is something like a hangout for the people of Brigade.
