This capacity expansion aims to ensure uninterrupted service and efficient passenger management during increased passenger journeys.
The Delhi Metro Rail Corporation is organising a week-long campaign to raise awareness about safety while using lifts and escalators across the Delhi Metro network.
Addressing a gathering on the occasion, Modi said that Delhi's development is linked to the image of the entire country.
The Chief Minister added that these projects will not only provide improved convenience for commuters but will also help reduce the pressure of private vehicles on roads and strengthen efforts to control pollution.
“As the nation prepares to celebrate the pride and spirit of Republic Day, Delhi Metro will commence its services at 3 AM on all lines on January 26 (Monday),” a DMRC spokesperson said.
"The Japanese delegation was briefed about the Delhi Metro project by senior DMRC officials at Central Secretariat, followed by a train ride from Central Secretariat to Patel Chowk and back," a DMRC spokesperson said.
Gupta stated that both short-term and long-term plans have been prepared and are under effective implementation right now.
Currently, the Delhi Metro caters to an average of 65 lakh passenger journeys per day.
The policy aims to institutionalise best practices in energy management and foster a culture of sustainability among DMRC employees, a DMRC spokesperson said on Tuesday.
