Few Metro Stations To Remain Closed From September 8-10

Traffic will be completely shut off at a few locations…


In New Delhi, the 18th G20 Summit will be held at the newly built Bharat Mandapam at Pragati Maidan in the upcoming week.

Authorities in Delhi have been making arrangements to welcome delegates from across the globe that will include over 25 heads of state and global institution leaders.

To make it smooth, Delhi Police has also issued orders for the movement of the Delhi Metro.

Due to security reasons, the gates of some metro stations will remain closed due to security reasons from September 8 to 10 when India will be hosting the G20 Summit.

According to the order issued by the police, traffic will be completely shut off at Moti Bagh, Bhikaji Cama Place, Munirka, RK Puram, IIT, and Sadar Bazar Cantonment metro stations. Passengers can neither enter nor exit from these metro stations.

Meanwhile, the police have kept Dhaula Kuan, Khan Market, Janpath, Supreme Court, and Bhikaji Cama Place metro stations on the list of sensitive places.

The Supreme Court Metro Station, as it is the nearest station to the venue, will also remain closed.

Besides the specified gates, the Delhi Metro will continue operating normally.

Passengers going towards the Delhi airport from the night of the 7th to the evening of the 11th of September have been advised to use the metro.
