I have been traveling from Blue line every day & from past week, Blue line station’s are not showing properly when metro is coming & metro are coming very late. Plus there is no update on station why it is happening?”

Lack of Information

Another issue, that the commuters of the line have been facing, is the lack of information on the destination station and the waiting time. As the Blue line has some important stations like Rajouri Garden, Karol Bagh, Rajiv Chowk, Supreme Court, Noida Sector 16 and Barakhamba Road, the lack of information has also become a headache for the travellers.

‘No report of any delay’

Talking to india.com, a DMRC official said that there was no technical issue reported as such, on Monday. The official said, “There might be some local issue with the signalling, but no major error has been reported to the DMRC.”

However, the issue of incomplete information continues to exist for the daily commuters.
