Sorry for the mistake (Lottegola Halli-Banaswadi line). The mistakes have been corrected.
For those who have a doubt:- As for the line from Yeshvantpur/Lottegola Halli - Banaswadi line, the website: www.wikimapia.com provides satellite images of almost any place on the earth. Please go to this website and type yeshvantpur Railway Station in the search tab. As soon as you get the search results, click on Yeshvantpur Rly. Station and navigate with your mouse along the railway line that leads to Lottegola Halli Rly. Station. Just after Lottegola Halli Rly.

FYI - the YPR-YNK and YPR-BAND lines are two separate lines and do not connect except at YPR. On the map it may appear as double lines only because they share an alignment and NOT operation. Technicalities must also be kept in mind. Again, the line that has been mentioned as a double electrified from BYPM to the MAS-SBC mainline is again incorrect, as only a single electrified line operates from BYPM and connecting it to the MAS-SBC mainline in the direction of SBC. The dual eletrified lines join the MAS-SBC mainlines just as they enter BYPL.
