'''Green Line''' of [[Namma Metro]] was built along with the Purple Line during the first phase of contruction of the [[Rapid transit|metro]] rail system for the city of [[Bengaluru]], [[Karnataka]], [[India]]. The 30.5&nbsp;km line connects Nagasandra in the northwest to Silk Institute in the south. The line connects the industrial centers of [[Peenya]] and [[Yelahanka]] in the north with the central hub of [[Majestic, Bangalore|Majestic]] and the southern residential areas of Bangalore ([[Basavanagudi]], [[Jayanagar, Bangalore|Jayanagar]], [[Banashankari|Banshankari]] etc.).
