Delhi Metro Train services will be curtailed on Republic day because of precautionary security arrangements affecting regular scheduled timings. According to our sources, on 26th January, Metro services and the metro parking area will remain shut. Delhi Metro Stations are expected to remain sealed during the duration of Republic Day Parade. As per the instructions of Delhi Police, the Metro timings will partially be curtailed on 26th January due to the security measurements on the Republic day celebrations. The commuters may face difficulties while travelling on 25th and 26th January 2018 because of the modified metro schedule.
The schedule of Delhi Metro line -2 from Huda City Centre to Jahangirpuri, Line-3 from Noida City Centre to Dwarka Sector 21, Line-4 Yamuna Bank to Vaishali and Line-6 Mandi House to Badarpur will partially modify for the 26th January 2018.
