People who intend to use these modes of transport at night need to carry valid identification papers to prove their credentials as essential service providers.
NEW DELHI: If you are not engaged in essential services and, so, not exempted from being on the streets at night, you will not be allowed to enter a Delhi Metro station or board a Delhi Transport Corporation or Cluster Scheme bus after 10pm. This also means that people who intend to use these modes of transport at night need to carry valid identification papers to prove their credentials as essential service providers.
“In view of the curfew from 10pm to 5am in Delhi starting Tuesday, entry in metro stations in those hours will be allowed only to those passengers who fall in the essential category as per a government order and after verification of their valid IDs by Delhi Metro Rail Corporation or Central Industrial Security Force personnel,” said Anuj Dayal, executive director (corporate communications), DMRC.
