What has been the impact on passengers?
The traffic system of the capital has been affected due to closure of metro stations and barricading on many major roads. People travelling by metro daily are now having to adopt alternative routes. Many passengers say that their journey is taking additional time of 40 to 45 minutes.
Why did the problems of office-goers increase?
Many central ministries, Prime Minister's Office (PMO) and other government offices are located around Mandi House, Central Secretariat, ITO and Seva Tirtha. Thousands of employees reach these areas daily by metro. Due to closure of stations, they now have to walk or resort to other means of transport.
Do railway passengers and lawyers also face problems?
Commuters going to New Delhi Railway Station and lawyers reaching the Supreme Court are also facing problems due to traffic restrictions and changes in metro services. Many people have to travel extra time to reach the train and court on time.
Were many stations closed even a day before?
This is the second consecutive day when restrictions have been imposed on metro stations due to security reasons. Earlier on July 24 also, DMRC had kept 17 metro stations closed. The effect of these restrictions, which have been in place for two consecutive days, is clearly visible on the pace of the capital.
