Holi, the festival of colours, will be celebrated on Wednesday, March 4, this year. In view of the festivities, metro train services in Delhi will not operate until 2:30 PM. Services will continue normally until 11.00 PM.
DMRC clarified that the revised timings will be applicable only on March 4. From the following day onwards, metro services will run as per the regular schedule, from 5:30 AM to 11.00 PM.
The decision has been taken keeping in mind passenger safety, crowd management, and cleanliness during the festival. Holi celebrations often see people gathering in large numbers in residential areas, parks, and on streets, which may lead to unusual crowds and disruptions during the morning hours. To avoid inconvenience and ensure smooth operations, services have been rescheduled for the day.
