Chaos prevailed at several Metro stations in the national capital on Monday after the Delhi Metro Rail Corporation (DMRC) closed five stations over security concerns ahead of the Cockroach Janta Party's (CJP) proposed march to Parliament.
According to PTI, the closures left hundreds of commuters stranded and forced many to take longer routes to their destinations.
