Now, here is good news for people who travel through Delhi Metro! If you have been facing mobile network connectivity and call drop issues during your journey on DMRC trains, the Delhi Metro Rail Corporation (DMRC) may soon put an end to your woes. Yes, you read it right. The DMRC is working to solve the call drop issue. Commuters on the newly commissioned routes under Phase -3, Magenta Line which connects Botanical Garden to Janakpuri West and Pink Line which connects Shiv Vihar to Majlis Park, are facing call drop issues. The commuters struggle to get the mobile connectivity, especially where the metro line is underground.

The DMRC claimed that it has already rectified the issue at as many as 10 underground Delhi metro stations.
