New Delhi’s primary metro stations, Rajiv Chowk, Vishwavidyalaya, Patel Chowk, Central Secretariat, Udyog Bhawan and Lok Kalyan Marg stations were also opened for public.
Earlier in the day, all major metro stations were closed due to the ongoing anti-Citizenship Amendment Act protests. Apart from metro stations, several routes were also shut, resulting in traffic congestion in parts of the city.
