Delhi Metro services on Blue Line hit, trains running slow for over 3 hours

DMRC officials said that trains were running on that stretch but the movement between Rajiv Chowk and Rajinder Place on the blue line was slow.

The passengers on the Delhi Metro’s blue line (between Dwarka Sector 21 and Noida Electronic City) had a harrowing time during rush hour on Monday morning as there was slow train movement for over three hours due to a technical snag.
