Delhi Metro will keep entries and exits restricted on its Heritage Line network (ITO-Kashmere Gate) on Independence Day on Tuesday, with commuter access limited to select gates, it was announced on Monday.

Stations at Delhi Gate, Lal Quila, Jama Masjid and ITO will see some of their gates closed for security reasons, the Delhi Metro Rail Corp said in a communique.

Train services between Indraprastha and Mandi House will run as normal, except when the Prime Minister’s convoy passes through Tilak Marg. When that happens, the train service between the two stations will be suspended.
