New Delhi, July 25, 2026 (Yes Punjab News)
The Delhi Metro Rail Corporation (DMRC) on Saturday reopened entry gates at Rajiv Chowk, Mandi House and Central Secretariat Metro stations after temporarily restricting access due to heightened security arrangements amid student protests in the national capital.
In its latest update, the DMRC announced that entry gates at the three stations had resumed normal operations.
Earlier in the day, the DMRC had suspended entry and exit services at 18 Metro stations across Central Delhi following security advisories linked to demonstrations near Jantar Mantar over alleged examination paper leaks.
The affected stations included Lok Kalyan Marg, Rajiv Chowk, Patel Chowk, Ramakrishna Ashram Marg, Barakhambha Road, Supreme Court, Seva Teerth, Janpath, Mandi House, Central Secretariat, ITO, Delhi Gate, Indraprastha, Khan Market, Jor Bagh, Shivaji Stadium, Jhandewalan and New Delhi.
The reopening of Rajiv Chowk, Mandi House and Central Secretariat stations came shortly after Union Education Minister Dharmendra Pradhan announced his resignation amid nationwide protests over alleged examination irregularities.
The DMRC has not yet announced the restoration of normal entry and exit services at the remaining affected Metro stations.
