In a bid to crack down on acts of “nuisance” and “obscene activities” inside the Delhi Metro, Delhi Police will now deploy over 100 of its personnel in civilian clothes inside the compartments at pre-identified stations, official said. Along with DMRC and CISF officials, these police personnel will prosecute offenders on the spot and take further legal action, officers added.
