Services on Delhi Metro's Yellow Line hit due to power tripping

Train services on the Yellow Line of the Metro between Chhattarpur and HUDA City Centre were suspended on Sunday between 9:55 am to 12:40 pm because of a problem in the overhead electrification (OHE) wires leading to the tripping of power supply on this section.

As a result, passengers from four trains (at Guru Dronacharya, Sikanderpur up/down, IFFCO Chowk) had to be deboarded.

Thereafter, physical identification for the exact location of the defective overhead wires was carried out by the maintenance team by walking on foot on the section.

Once the affected location was identified at 12 pm, the repair was done within 15 minutes and OHE supply to the affected section was restored at 12:15 pm and gradually the normal services were resumed at 12.40 pm.

During this period, train services on rest of the Line-2 section from Samaypura Badli to Qutab Minar were running normally.
