NEET 2020: Delhi Metro services to commence from 0600 hrs on all Ph-III sections on Sep 13

NEET 2020: Delhi Metro services to commence from 0600 hrs on all Ph-III sections on Sep 13

New Delhi, Sep 11 (UNI) The Delhi Metro train services on Phase-III sections, which usually begin at 0800 hrs on Sundays, will begin at 0600 hrs on September 13, to facilitate the candidates appearing for the National Eligibility cum Entrance Test (NEET 2020) Examination, a DMRC spokesperson said here on Friday.
These sections include -Dilshad Garden – Shaheed Sthal (New Bus Adda); Jahangirpuri – Samaypur Badli; Noida City Centre – Noida Electronic City; Mundka – Brigadier Hoshiyar Singh; Badarpur Border – Raja Nahar Singh (Ballabhgarh); Majlis Park – Mayur Vihar Pocket-1; Trilokpuri Sanjay Lake – Shiv Vihar; Janak Puri West – Botanical Garden and Dwarka-Najafgarh.
Metro services on rest of the sections will remain running as per normal schedule from 0600 hrs onwards, he added.
'As everyone is aware that amidst the ongoing pandemic, Metro has resumed services with new norms in place for travel by the Metro this week only after a gap of over five months,' the spokesperson said.
As thermal screening/hand sanitisation of every passenger at entry point of station(s) is now a new normal and trains also halt for few extra seconds to ensure people board/deboard smoothly in adherence to social distancing norms, one must keep at least extra time of 15-30 minutes for his/her travel.
To regulate flow of passengers, only limited gates (not all) are opened at station(s) for the time being, one must check the earmarked gate opened for entry at the station(s) beforehand by visiting DMRC’s website www.delhimetrorail.com so as to avoid wastage of time in locating the Gate after reaching the station, he added.
'For your and everyone’s safety and to help prevent the spread of Coronavirus, wearing of face mask and adherence to social distancing norms throughout the travel has to be ensured by all commuters. Violation may attract penalties and removal from Metro premises,' the spokesperson said.
'Entry at the station won't be permitted, if anyone reaches without face mask/cloth. Those having fever or symptoms of Covid will also not be permitted to enter the station,' he added.
'For smooth and faster entry to the station, try to travel with minimum luggage and avoid carrying metallic items as baggage sanitisation and checking of metallic items during frisking by security personnel may further increase your travel time to the destination,' said the spokesperson.
