How much is the fine for stopping the closing gate of the metro? Do not make this mistake, even by mistake.

Delhi Metro has become the lifeline of the capital today. More than 60 lakh people travel by it every day. The network of Delhi Metro is the largest in India. This network of 10 lines covers the entire NCR. Whether it is going to office, market or college, metro is a reliable means for everyone.

Be it crowd or heat, it is the metro that takes people to their destination on time. Such a large number of people travel in the metro every day. In such a situation, Delhi Metro Rail Corporation has made some rules to make the journey safe and comfortable.

Every passenger has to follow these rules. It has been seen many times that due to crowd and hurry, many people try to stop the metro gate when it is closing. Some people put their hands or bags to stop the gate from opening again.

But doing this can put you in a lot of trouble. According to the rules, stopping the gate from closing in the metro is a crime. Heavy fines are imposed on those who break the rules. Also, many times they are stopped at the station and questioned.

If you intentionally stop the metro gate from closing, you may have to pay a fine of up to Rs 500. This is considered a crime under the DMRC Act. In some cases, after paying the fine, the station staff can even deboard you from the train.

Let us tell you that the metro gates are controlled by sensors. Any obstruction during the gate closing can damage the system. This can increase the technical problems of the train. If the gate is not closed at the right time, the movement of the train stops.

This causes problems to thousands of passengers. So if the gate is closing, wait. Catch the next train. Never try to stop the metro gate from closing with your hand or with the handle in a hurry, in such a case you will not only have to pay a fine but you can also put people's lives in danger.
