New Delhi: Government sources said that due to the restrictions imposed in view of Coronavirus, metro rail services can start in the fourth phase of un-lock. Sources have said that schools and colleges will still remain closed and crowded places like cinema halls will remain closed. However, the final decision will be of the state government to restart metro services.
The source said that "Delhi Metro is expected to start services from September 1, but with wider restrictions." The talk of opening the Delhi Metro grew rapidly following an insistence by CM Arvind Kejriwal, who said that the Corona epidemic situation in Delhi had improved. Kejriwal said in an online meeting with businessmen, entrepreneurs and businessmen yesterday, "I have urged the Center that Delhi should be treated differently."
He has stated that "The condition of corona infection in Delhi is improving. If they do not want to run metro trains in other cities, then let it be. But metro train services in Delhi should be started in a phased manner. Although with some conditions". Sources said the Center's argument was that flight and train services have resumed, allowing passengers to stay inside the train or aircraft for hours. In comparison, the longest metro journey cannot last more than two hours. And this is possible if all security measures are taken care of.
