India Today
Technical glitch delayed services for three hours on Pink, Violet and Green lines of Delhi Metro on Thursday.
Delhi Metro commuters braved long queues on Thursday morning as services were delayed for three hours on Pink, Violet and Green lines due to a technical glitch in the signalling system.
The snag hit the three lines early morning, affecting services from 8.05 am to 11.05 am, Delhi Metro Rail Corporation (DMRC) officials said.
Many commuters took to social media to share pictures of passengers standing in long queues awaiting the arrival of trains, which were coming to stations at longer-than-normal intervals.
A large number of people, mainly office-goers, take the metro every morning to go to their workplaces in the national capital and neighbouring cities.
"No metro from last 20 minutes at kashmere gate, heavy rush," a Twitter user, Mayank Sharma, said.
