“Delhi Metro fares increased following the BJP’s victory in the 2025 Delhi Assembly elections.”
What FACTLY found
The graphic in the viral post is from a NavBharat Times report dated 10 October 2017, when Delhi Metro fares were increased by the Delhi Metro board. We found no credible reports confirming any fare hike following the 2025 Delhi Assembly elections. Additionally, Delhi Metro Rail Corporation (DMRC) clarified on 12 February 2025 that fares have not been revised or increased.
Their words, from the summary they publish with the rating.
