The Delhi Metro is a key mode of transportation for thousands of commuters (NCRs) in the national capital region, connecting Delhi with Noida, Gurugram, Ghaziabad and Faridabad. Since Holi is one of the most well-known festivals, travelers are advised to plan their journey accordingly to avoid inconvenience.

The Delhi metro network spans about 395 kilometers and has 289 stations, making it a key transportation method for residents and tourists in Delhi and its neighboring cities. On regular days, services usually operate from 5:00 a.m. to 11:30 p.m. However, during important festivals like Holi, adjustments were made to accommodate public safety and operational considerations.

Passengers are encouraged to plan their own journey, remembering the revised time to ensure a smooth travel experience on Holi. For any help or inquiries, DMRC’s customer service can be used to help commuters browse their travel plans during the holidays.
