Heavy Rain Causes Delays on Delhi Metro's Yellow Line Service

The Delhi Metro's Yellow Line experienced delays on Friday due to heavy rainfall, causing disruption between Vishwavidyalaya and Central Secretariat stations. The Delhi Metro Rail Corporation (DMRC) reported major delays along this section, but no specific reason for the disruption was given.

According to a report by The Economic Times, the delays affected hundreds of passengers, many of whom complained that the delays left them struggling to reach offices and schools on time. Commuters reported unusually long travel times, with a journey from Vishwavidyalaya to GTB Nagar taking nearly 50 minutes instead of the usual few minutes.

The DMRC did not specify a reason for the delay in services between the two stations, nor did they provide any information about any alternative transportation arrangements for affected passengers. Despite the disruption on the Yellow Line, services on other corridors of the Delhi Metro network remained unaffected.

The DMRC also posted an update about the delay on X, but no information about the exact duration of the delay was provided. The disruption occurred during peak office hours and school hours, causing frustration to passengers struggling to reach their destinations on time.

The DMRC is responsible for the operation of the Delhi Metro, including the Yellow Line that was disrupted on Friday morning. The exact duration of the disruption is not specified in the article. The article does not specify if the services on other corridors of the Delhi Metro network were affected by the delay.
