New Delhi [India], June 16 (ANI): Delhi Metro train services on Phase-III sections began at 6 am on Sunday instead of the usual 8 am to facilitate candidates appearing for the Civil Services (Prelim) Examination held by UPSC.
Many UPSC candidates said that it was a good measure and a great help to them.
“I have to appear for my exam in Noida. Metro services started at 6 AM today. It is a good initiative as we will be able to reach the exam centres on time,” Aman Kumar, a UPSC candidate told ANI.
Another candidate Rakesh Kumar said, “It is a good thing that the metro started today at 6 AM. It will be helpful for the UPSC students to reach their exam centres on time. Metro services on the Pink Line should permanently start at 6 AM instead of 8 AM.”
The rest of the metro services across other sections will operate as per their normal schedule, starting from 8 AM onwards, according to the DMRC.
