The Delhi Metro is a key mode of transport for thousands of daily commuters in the National Capital Region (NCR), connecting Delhi with Noida, Gurugram, Ghaziabad, and Faridabad. With Holi being one of the most widely celebrated festivals, travelers are advised to plan their journeys accordingly to avoid inconvenience.
The Delhi Metro network, spanning approximately 395 kilometers with 289 stations, serves as a crucial mode of transportation for residents and visitors in Delhi and its neighboring cities. On regular days, services typically operate from 5:00 AM to 11:30 PM. However, during significant festivals like Holi, adjustments are made to accommodate public safety and operational considerations.
Passengers are encouraged to plan their journeys keeping in mind the revised timings to ensure a smooth travel experience on Holi. For any assistance or inquiries, DMRC's customer service is available to help commuters navigate their travel plans during the festive period.
