Delhi Metro Yellow Line affected amid heavy rain in Delhi-NCR

Metro services on a stretch of the Delhi Metro's Yellow Line from Vishwavidyalya to Central Secretariat stations were disrupted on Friday morning during peak office and school hours due to heavy rains. This move caused inconvenience to thousands of commuters.

According to official announcement by Delhi Metro Rail Corporation (DMRC), trains were running with delays between Vishwavidyalaya and Central Secretariat stations, while normal services were maintained across all other corridors of the network.

Several passengers also complained that the travel time from Vishwavidyalaya to GTB Nagar, stretched to nearly 50 minutes because of the disruption, as compared to a few minutes on normal days.


Many passengers said the delays left them struggling to reach offices and schools on time.

DMRC said that metro services were being gradually normalised and efforts were underway to restore smooth operations on the affected stations.

"The technical issue has been rectified. There might be some bunching of trains for some time. The services will be normal shortly," DMRC said in a statement.
