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.
All gates of the Lal Quila Metro Station have reopened for commuters, five days after the deadly Delhi blast at the Subhash Marg traffic signal near the Red Fort, which claimed the lives of 12 people.
Khobragade took a round of the exhibition and was briefed about the Delhi Metro by DMRC's Principal Executive Director, Corporate Communications Anuj Dayal.
The move is aimed at encouraging people to use Metro instead of their own vehicles and help mitigate the deteriorating air quality in the capital city as a collective responsibility.
"On the eve of Diwali, i.e. October 19, 2025 (Sunday), train services on the Pink, Magenta, and Grey lines, which usually begin at 7 AM on Sundays, will begin at 6 AM," a DMRC spokesperson said.
The delegations comprised top military officers from 32 UN troop contributing nations from across the world.
