Delhi Metro Rules: Metro is no less than a lifeline for the people of Delhi-NCR. In fact, lakhs of people travel by it every day. Especially people going to office travel a lot by it. If one has to come from Gurgaon to Noida or from Noida to Gurgaon, then people prefer to travel by metro.
There are many reasons behind this, from fare to saving time. In such a situation, if you also travel by metro, then it is important for you to know which mistakes you should not make. Otherwise you can be fined. The first mistake in this is regarding the women’s coach. So let’s know about this. People traveling by metro can know about this in the next slides…
Don’t go in the ladies coach
Actually, if you travel by metro, then know that the first coach in the direction of the train’s movement is reserved for women, that is, only women can travel in this coach. In such a situation, if a man is caught traveling in this coach, then he is fined.
Flying squads remain deployed
Flying squads are deployed at various places (many metro stations) on the metro route. This squad comprises of Central Industrial Security Force i.e. CISF, Delhi Metro Rail Police i.e. DMRP and DMRC personnel. This squad catches those people who are caught travelling in the women’s coach.
Why can’t men travel in women’s coach?
Actually, a few years ago, DMRC had decided that the first coach in the direction of the train’s movement would be reserved for women. This was done so that cases like molestation and misbehavior with women could be stopped inside the metro and women could travel without any problem and get a safe environment in the metro.
How much is the fine?
If a man is caught travelling in the women’s coach in the metro, then a fine of Rs 250 is imposed on him under the Delhi Metro O&M Act. Therefore, avoid travelling in the women’s coach.
