Delhi Metro Rail Corporation (DMRC) on Wednesday announced that it will operate metros with 100% seating capacity without any standing passenger in compliance with the fresh guidelines released by the Delhi Disaster Management Authority (DDMA).
“In wake of the latest guidelines issued by [the] DDMA, Delhi Metro will be running with the 100% seating capacity and no standing passengers will be allowed till further notice,” DMRC tweet read.
The DDMA on Tuesday imposed weekend curfew across Delhi owing to the city consistently witnessing a sharp spike in single-day cases. Containment zones and hospitalisation rates in the national capital have also significantly increased as the country combats the highly transmissible Omicron variant of Covid-19.
