Services on Delhi Metro’s Blue Line were affected on Sunday due to a technical failure reported from a train heading towards Noida from Patel Nagar, DMRC officials said.

“Train services on the Blue Line were regulated from 2.05 pm to 3.15 pm due to a technical snag in a train as it moved from Patel Nagar station towards Noida,” they said.

The Delhi Metro Rail Corporation (DMRC) said efforts were made to troubleshoot the technical issue at the Patel Nagar station and then again at the Karol Bagh station, which resulted into bunching of trains on the nearby section during this period.

“As troubleshooting was taking time, the affected train was finally withdrawn from service in order to avoid delays. Thereafter, regular movement of trains was available on the entire Blue Line from 3.15 pm onwards,” the officials said.

The Tribune, now published from Chandigarh, started publication on February 2, 1881, in Lahore (now in Pakistan). It was started by Sardar Dyal Singh Majithia, a public-spirited philanthropist, and is run by a trust comprising five eminent persons as trustees.

The Tribune, the largest selling English daily in North India, publishes news and views without any bias or prejudice of any kind. Restraint and moderation, rather than agitational language and partisanship, are the hallmarks of the newspaper. It is an independent newspaper in the real sense of the term.

The Tribune has two sister publications, Punjabi Tribune (in Punjabi) and Dainik Tribune (in Hindi).
