The Delhi Metro Rail Corporation had created an account on the micro-blogging site on December 20 last year to keep commuters informed about delays in metro services and other announcements. The mass transit operator later widened its social media outreach and opened pages on Instagram as well as Facebook. The DMRC will celebrate 25 years of its existence. Various programmes are being held to mark the occasion. The Delhi Metro currently has an operational network of 343 km and has 250 stations. The network consists of eight-colour coded lines.
