Delay in Pink line Metro:
In other news, earlier in the day, there were delays on the Pink Line from Durgabai Deshmukh South Campus to Lajpat Nagar. However, normal service continued on other metro routes.
To address rising air pollution in the national capital region, the Delhi Metro Corporation has introduced 20 extra train trips. This initiative aims to encourage daily commuters to opt for public transport over personal vehicles in Delhi and its adjacent areas, including Noida and Ghaziabad. Even before the addition of these 20 trips, Delhi Metro had already increased its trips by 40 on weekdays since October 25, coinciding with the implementation of GRAP-II.
