Delhi Metro services to start 2 hours early on Monday for Chhath Puja devotees
Early services will start simultaneously from all terminal stations, with trains running every 15 minutes until regular services begin.
Delhi Metro Rail Corporation (DMRC) will begin train services at 4:30 am on Monday, 16th November 2026, two hours earlier than usual, to accommodate devotees observing Usha Arghya during Chhath Puja. This early service schedule was announced by DMRC on X, as they aim to facilitate the movement of devotees for the morning prayers to the rising Sun, which is a significant part of the four-day Chhath festival.
Starting from all terminal stations across the DMRC network, trains will operate at a frequency of 15 minutes on all lines until regular revenue services commence. After the early services, trains will adhere to the regular schedule for the day.
