“Efforts are underway to identify the fault and restore normal operations quickly. Passengers are being kept informed through announcements,” the spokesperson said.
Services on all the other lines were running according to schedule, the DMRC said.

Experts call Delhi Jal Board’s sewage plan flawed and unlawful
Days after the Delhi Jal Board (DJB) released a detailed action plan to curb the discharge of untreated sewage into the Yamuna, environmentalists have criticised the proposal as “unreasonable” and “illogical.” They argue that installing sewage treatment plants (STPs) at the mouths of major drains would render existing STPs irrelevant and contravene environmental guidelines. Activists claim that the DJB cannot construct STPs at the mouths of major drains such as the Shahdara and Najafgarh, as these locations fall within the Yamuna floodplain—an area where construction is prohibited under directives issued by the National Green Tribunal (NGT). Speaking to Patriot, environmentalist Pankaj Kumar, founder of Earth Warrior—a volunteer group that cleans the Yamuna ghats in Delhi—said officials are not even assessing the feasibility of their plan.
Delhi govt to boost sports infra, provide financial assistance to athletes: CM Gupta

The BJP government will provide all necessary facilities to sportspersons so that they do not migrate to other states, and bring glory to the city, she said while inaugurating Delhi Games-2025 at Talkatora stadium. “Under the previous governments, sportspersons in city had to leave the city and get registered in other states. But, now the city government is arranging facilities for them through the Delhi Sports Council,” she said.
