No Metro services till 2 PM on Holi
NEW DELHI: Delhi Metro services will be curtailed this Thursday in view of Holi festival and will start only at 2 PM.
Normally, the Metro services start at six AM every day. "On the day of the 'Holi' festival, Metro services will not be available till 2 PM on all the six lines. Once the services commence at 2 PM, it will continue normally thereafter," a Delhi Metro spokesperson said.
Metro feeder bus services will not be available for the whole day on Holi, he said.
Drunk driving: 585 caught in 4 days
New Delhi: Around 600 drunk drivers were caught in the capital in the past four days during a pre-Holi drive with police today warning people driving under the influence of alcohol that they will have to spent Holi in jail.
As many as 146 drunk drivers were caught last night, taking the total number of prosecutions to 585 in the past four days. While similar number of people were challaned on Saturday night, 175 were caught on Friday for drunken driving. Another 118 were caught on Thursday night.
"It seems everyday is irresponsible day and people would take chances on any day to drink and drive. It is not that only on weekend people drink and drive. On any day we are the same.
"We will continue our drive to account for violations and am sure jails will find space for these people so that on Holi they remain locked up rather than create nuisance on roads for themselves and others," Joint Commissioner of Police (Traffic) Satyendra Garg said.
Garg said he wished police had the resources to account for every violator at all places, at all times of night for these drunk drivers.
"Maybe social control in terms of parents, families is missing to discourage people from drunk driving," he said.
The city police have warned Delhiites not to take advantage of Holi and indulge in drunken driving this week as they are to enforce more discipline on roads to ensure an accident-free festival.
Garg said in just two months, nearly 700 people have been awarded jail terms.
"Are these not sufficient to put reason in people's mind to change themselves...But obviously, jail term, possibility of injuries and even death cannot make them sane...By the time Holi ends, it (the number of prosecutions) may be 2,000," he said.
"Last year on the day of Holi, we caught about 800 drunk drivers. If they do not modify their habits we will persist with our efforts do discipline them," he said.

Earthquake jolts Delhi, adjoining areas; no casualties reported
NEW DELHI: An earthquake of medium intensity jolted Delhi and its satellite towns on Monday afternoon, pulling panic-stricken people out of their homes and offices.
The tremors, measuring 4.9 on the Richter scale with Haryana's Bahadurgarh as epicentre, were felt across Delhi and its adjoining satellite towns of Ghaziabad and Noida in Uttar Pradesh at a 1:11pm, the MeT office said.
However, according to the US Geological Survey, the strength of the earthquake was measured 5.2 on the Richter scale.
The quake took place 9km below the surface. The tremors were felt for less than ten seconds.
"The intensity was 4.9 and the epicentre was Bahadurgarh, Delhi-Haryana Border," a senior MeT official said.
There were no immediate reports of any casualty. The fire brigade and police said they have not received any immediate calls of casualty or damage.
According to the Seismic Zone Mapping done by the Geological Survey of India (GSI), Delhi is among 30 cities in the country falling in zone IV, which is defined as a severe intensity seismic zone.
This is the third tremor in Delhi, which is among the 30 cities which fall in the high risk seismic zone, since September last year.
Tremors were felt in the capital on September 18 last year following an earthquake with an intensity of 6.8 on the Richter scale having its epicentre near Sikkim-Nepal border.
On September eight last year, an earthquake of 4.2 on Richter scale with Haryana's Sonepat as epicentre, had rocked the capital.
