The services on the 11.04 km Versova Andheri Ghatkopar Metro line were affected for some time on Monday morning at around 9.30 am after a group of MNS party workers tried to stop the train at D N Nagar metro station.
One of the commuters who were at the platform tweeted "#BharatBandh #MNS party workers blocked the metro rail at DN Nagar Metro Station today @ 9:40 am"
The protesters also went on the railway track shouting slogans along with flags. The security personnel at the station immediately took a serious note about this and moved away from the protesters so that the services are not blocked.
