On Tuesday, October 21, disruptions in the metro line led to protests at the Golestaneh station, where passengers chanted "Death to Khamenei" and "Reza Shah, may your soul rest in peace" while banging on the train walls. This incident caused significant delays in train schedules. Travelers reported that a rapid train that left Golshahr at 7:20 AM remained halted near Chitgar for about half an hour. Passengers resorted to opening emergency exits and stepping onto the metro tracks.

Such disruptions have happened before, with citizens protesting long delays, like a notable incident on August 23, where chants of "Death to the dictator" and "Death to the Islamic Republic" echoed in response to ongoing issues at the Aliabad and Khazaneh stations.
