NEW DELHI, INDIA (Metro Rail News): The Red Line which was the first to start operations in December 2002, will soon see updated exterior facades, more escalators, new floors and aesthetics and updated signage. The revamp also includes provisions for adding an insulation sleeve on crucial writing and installing bird spikes at various points to prevent overhead electrical tripling because of birds.

DMRC had undertaken a large- scale renovation exercise for 21 Metro Stations on the Red Line in the year 2019. Of these, work is nearly completed in 12 including Dilshad Garden, Jhilmil, Mansarovar Park, Shahdara, Welcome and Shastri Park. Work on remaining stations will be completed in the next two months said by DMRC Officials.
