DIVYA DELHI : The Delhi Police has reportedly proposed closing entry and exit gates at 57 metro stations from 9 pm as part of a possible security-related measure in the national capital. The proposal could affect evening commuters and passengers travelling through some of Delhi Metro’s busiest stations. If implemented, the restrictions may regulate passenger movement at the identified stations during the specified hours. However, the impact on daily commuters would depend on the final list of stations, the duration of the restrictions and the arrangements made by the authorities. Delhi Metro is a major mode of public transport for residents, office-goers, students and visitors. Any change in station access could require passengers to plan their journeys carefully, particularly those travelling late in the evening. The proposal does not necessarily mean that all 57 stations will shut completely or that train services will stop after 9 pm. The exact arrangements would depend on the instructions issued by the authorities and any coordination with the Delhi Metro Rail Corporation (DMRC). Commuters are advised to check official Delhi Police and DMRC announcements for confirmed details before travelling. Further clarification is needed on the implementation date, affected stations and the specific reasons behind the proposed restrictions.
