While DMRC has increased the minimum fare from Rs 4 to Rs 6, it has fixed the fare for the extended 21-km Shahdara-Rithala section (to be operational from March 31) at Rs 14. The fare from Shahdara to Shastri Nagar will be Rs 11, instead of the existing Rs 8.
DMRC will also open the new 8.9-km Inderlok-Rithala section to the public tomorrow. With this, the length of Line 1 of the Delhi Metro would now be 21 km. It will be covered in about 38 minutes.
