With Delhi continuing to battle and reel under dengue, the Delhi Metro Rail Corp (DMRC) has put up more than 300 large banners and posters at all its stations. These banners contain information in a bullet-point format which is simple to understand. Even the public information display system has been fed with scrolling messages to educate the commuters on how to prevent the disease from further spreading. Apart from that, various meets have been held at the Metro’s Depots and employee residential colonies around the city to spread aware.
