New Delhi: If you are planning to take the Delhi Metro late at night today, then make sure that you reach the platform before 10 pm. The Delhi Metro has revised its timings on the occasion of Diwali. Delhi Metro Rail Corporation (DMRC) said the last train service on all Delhi Metro corridors will start at 10 pm from terminal stations on Monday. However, the DMRC added that the routine time for that on regular days is 11 pm.
Metro train services will run as usual for rest of the day on Diwali from routine commencement timings on all the lines, the Delhi Metro tweeted.
In a separate development, the Delhi government last week granted approval for the removal and transplantation of 316 trees for the construction of the Janakpuri-RK Ashram metro corridor.

In this regard, the Delhi Metro Rail Corporation has proposed the construction of a new Delhi Metro corridor extending from Janakpuri to RK Ashram. These trees were coming in the way of Delhi Metro Phase-Four’s construction.
Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal said, “We have cleared the path for construction of a new metro corridor between Janakpuri and RK Ashram, today. DMRC has been given permission to remove and transplant 316 trees obstructing the project, provided they compensate by planting 3,160 more trees.”
