The Noida Metro Rail Corporation (NMRC) will suspend its services on Saturdays and Sundays in view of the weekend curfew imposed in Uttar Pradesh to check the spread of COVID-19, officials said.
In an order issued on Monday, the NMRC said the decision is aimed at discouraging the outdoor movement of people amid the pandemic.
"Keeping in view the ongoing large scale spread of COVID-19 pandemic and accordingly to discourage the passengers from moving out on curfew days, the NMRC has decided not to run any service on the curfew days declared by the government," NMRC managing director Ritu Maheshwari said.
