Delhi Metro Allows Carrying Two Sealed Bottles of Liquor; DMRC Issues Guidelines

Delhi Metro – the heart and soul of transportation in the National Capital Region (NCR) is now allowing its passengers to carry two sealed liquor bottles on all routes of the Metro. As per the data till May 2023, around 5 million people travel via Delhi Metro on a daily basis. Delhi Metro Rail Corporation (DMRC) is the public sector company that is responsible for the operation of Delhi Metro and the above announcement was made by DMRC only.

It is important to note that the bottles must be carried for personal consumption at the destination only and not for sale purposes in the metro.
