On Friday, more than 69 lakh passengers travelled on the Delhi Metro despite heavy rains across Delhi-NCR. The Delhi Metro Rail Corporation (DMRC) operated services smoothly without any hindrance, maintaining a punctuality rate of 99.95 percent.
DMRC shared this information on its social media platform X, reporting that on June 28, 2024, precisely 69,36,425 passengers used the metro.
Comparatively, the preceding day, Thursday (June 27, 2024), saw 62,58,072 passengers travelling. DMRC noted an increase of 7 lakh passengers on Friday compared to Thursday, attributing it to commuters opting for the metro over private vehicles or other modes of transport due to heavy rains in Delhi.
Despite minor water accumulation outside station premises and at entry and exit gates, the metro operated seamlessly throughout the day.
