What Happened
Delhi Police has asked Delhi Metro Rail Corporation (DMRC) to prepare for possible closure of entry and exit gates at 57 Metro stations from 9 pm on October 9 and through October 10 due to planned protests in the capital. Police have also proposed reducing train frequency at affected stations to manage crowd movement near sensitive locations. The measures are advisory and depend on the ground situation.
Key Takeaways
Commuters travelling through key hubs such as Rajiv Chowk, New Delhi, Mandi House, Kashmere Gate, INA and Hauz Khas should check official DMRC updates before travelling, as restrictions could affect metro operations across central, north and south Delhi.
