  "account": "Delhi Metro will shut six stations, including Rajiv Chowk, Central Secretariat, and Patel Chowk, for a six-hour period from 6am to 4pm on Monday. The decision comes amid heightened security arrangements for a Congress-led protest march to the Supreme Court, where opposition parties are demanding Chief Election Commissioner Gyanesh Kumar's resignation over alleged electoral roll irregularities. Interchange facilities will remain operational at all six stations. The Delhi Metro Rail Corporation (DMRC) announced the restrictions citing security reasons, with the situation to be reviewed by security agencies. Traffic police has warned of possible disruptions and diversions across New Delhi and Central Delhi, with potential impacts on vehicle movement at major intersections and roads. Commuters are advised to account for possible delays and plan their journeys accordingly.",
