Commuters on Delhi Metro's Red Line faced disruptions between Welcome and Seelampur stations on Tuesday morning due to a technical glitch. The issue caused significant inconvenience during the morning rush.

The Red Line, which connects Rithala in Delhi to Shaheed Sthal New Bus Adda in Uttar Pradesh, saw train services regulated from 8.25 am to 10.55 am due to a signalling problem. Trains operated at a reduced speed during this time, resulting in congestion, authorities reported.

The signalling issue was resolved by 10.55 am, and normal train services resumed. This incident follows a similar disruption on the Yellow Line, where vandalism led to damaged signalling cables between Haiderpur Badli Mor and Jahangirpuri stations.
