From metro station announcements to QR codes for assistance, Delhi Metro has rolled out multiple measures, PTI said.

People with parking passes can simply scan the QR code printed on their pass to get real-time directions to the nearest parking area from their seating enclosure, and then walk the short distance to their seats.

How Metro Announcement Will Help Visitors

According to officials, commuters will be directed to specific metro stations depending on whether their allotted seating enclosure lies to the north or south of the Kartavya Path. This year, enclosures have been named after rivers.

For example, if spectators have been allotted an enclosure on the southern side, such as Beas, Brahmaputra, Chambal, Chenab, Gandak, Ganga, Ghagra, Godavari, Sindhu and Jhelum, the metro announcement will help them to reach their enclosure, and they will be asked to get down at Udyog Bhawan Metro Station.
