Here are the arrangement made by the authorities:

• The authorities have closed the entry to platform 16 via the foot overbridge.
• Passengers with reservations for trains departing from platform 16 can access it exclusively through gates 7 and 10 on the Ajmeri Gate side.
• A dedicated gate and a ‘green corridor’ have been established for passengers with unreserved general tickets, allowing for smoother access.
• These passengers can enter through gate number 12 from the Ajmeri Gate side using the designated corridor.
• For platforms 1 to 15, passengers can use gates 8, 9, and 11, as entry through other gates will not be allowed.
• Access from the DMRC Metro Skywalk to the foot overbridge at New Delhi Railway Station has been temporarily suspended until November 2.
• Passengers will need to take a detour to reach the station during this time.
