The Delhi Metro has closed entry and exit at 11 stations due to protests by AAP and student unions. The affected stations include Rajiv Chowk, Central Secretariat, Jantar Mantar, Janpath, Patel Chowk, Seva Teerth, Mandi House, Lok Kalyan Marg, INA, Chawri Bazar, Ramakrishna Ashram Marg, and New Delhi.
Interchange facilities remain available at select stations, namely Rajiv Chowk, Mandi House, New Delhi, and Central Secretariat. The closures are a result of protests demanding the resignation of the Chief Election Commissioner over the Special Intensive Revision of electoral rolls and alleged mass deletion of voters.
The protests coincide with Gandhi Jayanti events at Rajghat and Vijay Ghat, which have traffic curbs in central Delhi from 5 am to 11 am, according to Hindustan Times.
