Train services have started for 15 cities across the country. All the trains are running from the capital Delhi to 15 cities. Reservation for trains was started from 11 May itself. After the introduction of passenger trains, now Delhi Metro has also indicated to start its services.

Metro service in the lockdown has been stopped since March 22, but if people get concessions in the lockdown-4, then the operation of the metro can also be included because, without the metro, the movement to Delhi will not be easy.

Delhi Metro’s Executive Director Anuj Dayal said that the date has not been announced yet when the Delhi Metro will run. People will be informed at the right time. Keeping in mind Corona infection, cleanliness, and maintenance are being worked on in detail.

In particular, the signal, power supply, the metro track will be examined in-depth, so that the metro can take the passengers to their destination with full responsibility and safety.

As before, food stalls at any metro station will not open. Passengers will have to maintain social distance for which 50% less passengers will be able to travel in the metro than before.

Arogya Setu app will be mandatory in travelers’ mobiles. Security employees may have to show the Arogya Setu App on their mobiles first. If a person has any problem like flu, then traveling will not be allowed. Travelers will be required to wear masks.

But as before, traveling in the metro will not be possible, it will be in a completely different style. A protocol is being prepared for social distancing at metro and stations. Stickers are being placed inside the metro train so that people can sit at a distance from each other and do not sit on the seats where the stickers are placed.

Not only this, in view of the crisis of coronavirus epidemic, cleanliness has also been started in all the metro stations of Delhi. These include 264 stations, 2200 metro coaches, 1100 escalators, and 1000 stars. Passengers must follow the new guidelines.

What concessions will be available in Lockdown 4 will be known only after the announcement. But Delhi Metro has started work on a war footing to prepare itself for operational after lockdown. If metro services start then you will see a changed form of it.
