Monday may prove to be difficult for office-goers in the NCR as the Delhi Metro Rail Corporation (DMRC) has decided to shut all stations outside Delhi from Sunday night till further orders. With Jats threatening to intensify their protest demanding reservations in jobs and education on Monday, Delhi Police have asked DMRC to terminate all trains at the last station on all lines in Delhi from 11.30 pm on Sunday.
Apart from this, 12 stations in central Delhi will be closed from 8pm on Sunday. The restrictions will be there till further orders of Delhi Police, which means Monday is going to be troublesome for commuters.
“DMRC has been directed by the Delhi Police to terminate all trains at Delhi border w.e.f 11.30 pm on March 19. It is therefore requested that necessary arrangements may kindly be made for maintenance of law and order at these stations. All entry gates of all Metro stations outside Delhi shall remain closed from 11.30 pm on March 19 till closure of arrangements by Delhi Police,” said the letter written by the DMRC to the police chief of Noida, Ghaziabad, Gurgaon and Faridabad.
