To enhance the experience for those attending the Republic Day parade at Kartavya Path on January 26, Delhi Metro authorities have announced modifications in service timings. Commencing at 4 am, all metro lines will run every 30 minutes until 6 am, returning to regular schedules afterward. The Delhi Metro Rail Corporation (DMRC) emphasized the necessity of possessing valid e-invitation cards or e-tickets, providing detailed instructions on navigating metro stations seamlessly.
Early Morning Services for Attendees
Services during the early hours aim to accommodate attendees, with trains available every 30 minutes until 6 am. Following this, the metro will adhere to its regular timetable for the remainder of the day.
Coupon System Introduced
For those with genuine e-invitation cards or e-tickets, the DMRC has introduced a coupon system. Coupons will be issued upon presenting government-issued identity cards at stations and will only be valid for exits from Central Secretariat and Udyog Bhawan stations leading to Kartavya Path. The same coupon facilitates return journeys from these two stations.
Guidance for Different Enclosures
Passengers holding invitation cards marked for enclosures 1 to 9 and V1, V2 are advised to deboard at Udyog Bhawan. Conversely, those with cards marked for enclosures 10 to 24 and VN should deboard at Central Secretariat. The DMRC assured that regular announcements inside trains will keep passengers informed, ensuring a smooth transition to their designated stations for reaching the respective enclosures.
