Delhi Metro Alert: 16 Stations Shut – Is Yours On The List?

The Delhi Metro Rail Corporation (DMRC) on Tuesday announced the temporary closure of 16 Metro stations across the national capital due to security reasons. The restrictions will remain in force until further instructions from the authorities.

Despite the closures, the DMRC clarified that interchange facilities will continue to operate at Rajiv Chowk, Mandi House and Central Secretariat, allowing passengers to switch between Metro lines without exiting the stations.

The stations closed for entry and exit include Lok Kalyan Marg, Rajiv Chowk, Patel Chowk, Ramakrishna Ashram Marg, Barakhambha Road, Supreme Court, Seva Teerth, Janpath, Mandi House, Central Secretariat, ITO, Delhi Gate, Indraprastha, Khan Market, Jor Bagh and Shivaji Stadium.

The DMRC issued the advisory through its official communication, urging commuters to plan their journeys accordingly and follow official updates for the latest information.

The temporary closures come amid heightened security arrangements in the national capital.

Metro trains will continue to run on the affected routes, but they will not stop at the closed stations for boarding or deboarding until authorities lift the restrictions.

The authorities have not announced when the stations will reopen and have asked commuters to use alternative stations or other modes of transport where necessary.

The DMRC said it will share regular updates through its official channels and advised passengers to check the latest travel advisories before starting their journey.
