Revised 45-station reporting and current status
The earlier 57-station proposal is superseded in this article by the revised October 10 reporting of 45 entry-exit restrictions. This does not establish present gate access or an evening reopening. Read the revised reporting and current official DMRC updates.
Delhi Metro Update October 10, 2026: What is known so far?
Information checked: 09 October 2026, 03:27 PM IST
If you are travelling by Delhi Metro on October 10, the practical question is whether you can enter at your starting station and leave at your destination. October 10 reporting describes entry-exit restrictions affecting 45 stations, revising the earlier proposed figure of 57. That is not the same as verified closure of the entire Delhi Metro network.
The reported restriction window ran from 9 pm on October 9 to 6 pm on October 10. That historical end time does not confirm automatic reopening. Reports describe interchange remaining available at affected stations except New Delhi; check the latest DMRC instructions for your actual journey.

Delhi Metro 57 Stations List: Proposed restrictions versus confirmed status
A headline using the earlier “57 stations closed” figure does not explain whether it refers to a request, an announced service change or restrictions already in place. A police communication and a DMRC passenger-service announcement have different purposes. Travellers need the latest operational information for the stations they will actually use.
An unverified full list is therefore not reproduced here. If you receive a list on WhatsApp, check the issuing authority, date, effective time and complete context. Compare it with the newest DMRC service update. A station appearing in an old screenshot does not establish its status on October 10.
Delhi Metro Entry and Exit Gate Closures: Are trains also stopped?
An entry gate controls access from outside the station. An exit gate lets passengers leave the station for the surrounding area. Train operation, stopping patterns and access through station gates are separate aspects of a journey. Restrictions on one should not automatically be described as suspension of every other facility.
An interchange is a change between Metro lines inside a station. Whether it remains available during gate restrictions depends on the current instructions for that station. Do not assume that an arrangement announced for one interchange also applies to another. Check the wording of the relevant announcement before planning your connection.
Rajiv Chowk, Janpath and Central Secretariat Metro Status
When searching for Rajiv Chowk, Janpath, Central Secretariat or New Delhi station, include the full travel date. For example, use “Rajiv Chowk Metro status October 10 2026” rather than relying only on a generic search. Still read the publication date, because an older story can appear above a newer announcement.
This article does not label these stations definitely open or closed without verified current information. Check your starting station, destination and required interchange separately. On arrival, follow station notices and staff instructions. An earlier screenshot is not an assurance that entry or exit will be available when you reach the station.
DMRC Official Updates: Where to check before travelling
Use the official Delhi Metro website to look for service announcements and press releases. A normal route planner can help you understand the network, but a station appearing on a map does not prove that its gates are accessible during temporary restrictions. Read journey-planning information together with the latest service notices.
Also check the latest posts from DMRC’s official X account, @OfficialDMRC. Look for the date, time and precise facility affected. Direct official links are included below. If the position is unclear, use the contact options listed on the official website or ask station assistance. No unverified contact number is supplied here.
Delhi Metro Travel Advice for October 10
Before leaving, recheck the access arrangements at both ends of your journey and any interchange you need. If you have a railway booking, flight, examination or appointment, keep its reporting time and booking details ready. Reports of Metro disruption do not automatically mean your other journey or appointment has been cancelled.
Charge your phone, keep essential tickets available offline and share your travel plan with your family. Allow flexibility for delays. This article does not prescribe a fixed extra travel time because congestion, distance and individual connections have not been verified for your route.
When considering an alternative station, assess more than walking distance. Check its gate status, access roads and onward transport as well. Avoid relying on an unverified social-media claim that a particular route is open or the fastest. Where announcements change, review your plan instead of treating an earlier screenshot as a guarantee.
New Delhi Metro Station, Railway Connections and Airport Travel
New Delhi Metro station, New Delhi railway station and your booked railway service are separate checks. A restriction at a Metro gate does not by itself establish that the railway station is closed or that a specific train has been cancelled. Use the railway’s official train-status information for the train concerned.
For an airport journey, check the Metro station you intend to use, any required interchange and access to your airport terminal separately. This article does not offer an unverified assurance that Airport Express or another route will operate normally. Confirm the relevant service announcement before committing to a connection.
Delhi Metro Closure Photos: Check dates before sharing
A screenshot showing a station list without its date should not be treated as a current order. A report from October 2, an older protest video or another day’s gate restriction does not establish the arrangements for October 10. Check the original publication date even when the headline uses the word “today”.
The featured image here is an illustrative graphic. The portrait poster is a traveller checklist, not a copy of an official notice. Neither is presented as a photograph from the protest or evidence that a station has closed. No invented diversion route or unconfirmed closure list is shown in these graphics.
FAQ: Delhi Metro Status on October 10, 2026

Will interchange remain available when gates are closed?
That depends on the station and its current official instructions. Verify the interchange needed for your own journey.
Is Rajiv Chowk Metro station open or closed?

Update timing and information limits
