Commuters will not be allowed to exit the Rajiv Chowk Station after 9pm on December 31, while entry will be confined to two gates, the Delhi Metro said on Thursday.

This decision has been taken to keep the revellers away and to maintain peace in the New Delhi district area on the New Year's Eve, said the Delhi Metro Rail Corporation. 

Passengers will be allowed to enter the station from 'F' and 'B' gates after 9pm.
