Signal glitch on Delhi Metro's Blue Line leads to rush hour delays

NEW DELHI: Commuters in the city had a tough week, with a technical glitch affecting train services on Delhi Metro's Blue Line (Dwarka-Vaishali/Noida Electronic City) on Thursday. Monday had seen autorickshaws and cabs go off the roads due to a strike. This was followed by two more days of massive surge pricing and long waiting periods as cab drivers continued their protest against the increase in CNG prices.
