Delhi metro stations closed amid large protests
Original: metro station closed today
Several metro stations in Delhi were closed to passengers today as authorities moved to restrict movement during protest activity in the capital. Reports link the shutdowns to a political standoff, with Scroll.in alleging that Prime Minister Narendra Modi put Delhi 'under siege' to protect Election Commissioner Gyanesh Kumar. Commuters faced disruption, and the closures have fueled criticism of heavy-handed security measures in the city.
Why now: Metro closures disrupting daily travel during protests in Delhi are drawing wide attention and political criticism.
