In response to incidents of suicide within Delhi Metro premises, the Delhi Metro Rail Corporation (DMRC) has initiated a campaign to promote mental well-being. Banners and digital displays with uplifting messages have been strategically placed at key stations such as Rajiv Chowk, Janakpuri West, and Central Secretariat.

The campaign, unveiled on World Suicide Prevention Day, features messages of hope, courage, and success, such as 'Agla station khushi ka hai, darwaje aapki side khulengey' (The next station is of happiness, the doors will open on your side). To further the reach, DMRC is also engaging the public through social media platforms.

DMRC has a history of supporting initiatives that foster a positive outlook on life, including previous campaigns like #Nevergiveup and #Choosetolive. These efforts have been instrumental in reaching millions of commuters, encouraging them to seek help and support in times of mental distress.
