Technical snag hits services at Yellow Line for over 20 minutes

New Delhi: Commuters of Delhi Metro faced trouble yet again on Friday, after services were slowed down for over 20 minutes due to signalling issues at three major stations on the busy Yellow Line, which connects Samaypur Badli and Huda City Centre.

A senior Delhi Metro Rail Corporation (DMRC) official said, "The snag occurred at Rajiv Chowk, Kashmere Gate and Vishwavidyala stations around 11.30 am. Train services slowed down, but did not stop."

"Due to a signalling issue at these interlocking stations of Line 2 (Yellow Line), trains were manually given routes from 11.30 am to 12.04 pm. This caused a little bunching of trains on Line 2 during this period," he said.

The issue was rectified within an hour and services were getting restored with normal movement, the DMRC statement said.
