DELHI (Metro Rail News): Delhi Metro Rail Corporation, in a tweet, told about the increase in trips to be made by the Delhi metro under the GARP-II stage to combat pollution in Delhi.
Delhi metro will increase the number of trips by 40, which means taking down the waiting time at platforms from 7-8 mins to 5-6 mins & 5-6 mins to 2-3 mins. It is being done to increase people’s reliance on Public Transport and decrease the use of Private Vehicles.

The additional trips will run only on weekdays to facilitate commutation and decrease carbon emissions in the capital. Currently, Delhi metro makes 4300 trips every day.
