Delhi will remain under security restrictions on Saturday, October 10, 2026, amid the planned Cockroach Janta Party (CJP) protests. From metro services to traffic, authorities have issued several advisories to manage security and public movement across the national capital.
If you are planning to travel across Delhi-NCR by metro or road, you should check the latest advisories issued by the authorities before leaving home.
The Delhi Metro Rail Corporation (DMRC) has revised its earlier closure notice, reducing the number of affected metro stations from 57 to 45. Here is the complete revised list of affected stations, the stations removed from the earlier list and the latest Delhi traffic advisory.
DMRC Revised Metro Station List: Which 45 Stations Will Remain Closed?
According to the revised DMRC notice, entry and exit at 45 metro stations will remain closed from 9 pm on October 9 until 6 pm on October 10, 2026, due to security concerns.
The revised list replaces the earlier advisory, which covered 57 stations. Security agencies will review the situation and issue further updates if required.

What Are the Interchange Rules at Closed Metro Stations?
DMRC has clearly stated that the interchange facilities will be available at all stations, except New Delhi Metro Station.
This indicates that travelers can still use the interchange facility at these stations to change metro lines, although there would be certain restrictions on entry and exit at these stations. Commuters need to take note of this development, especially if they are traveling from stations in central Delhi. The restrictions are expected to be in place till 6 pm on October 10.
Which Metro Stations Are Open Under the Revised Guidelines?
The following stations appeared in the earlier list provided for comparison but are absent from the revised list:
