Metro Rules: The metro is considered one of the safest modes of urban transportation in India. With CCTV cameras and Central Industrial Security Force security personnel monitoring it 24 hours a day, passengers can travel with peace of mind. However, today we’re going to discuss prohibited items that may be confiscated during security checks. Let’s find out.
Weapons such as knives, scissors, swords, blades, and pistols are prohibited on the Metro under any circumstances. All of these items pose a serious threat to passenger safety. Screwdrivers, pliers, testers, and other handheld tools are also banned because they could be used as weapons.
It is strictly prohibited to carry any explosive material like grenades, gunpowder, firecrackers and plastic explosives in the metro. Due to the risk of fire inside metro stations and trains, there is a complete ban on inflammable substances like LPG cylinders, petroleum, paint, wet batteries etc.
Oil, ghee, or other liquids should not be transported openly. They should be stored in an airtight container to prevent spillage or other hazards. Toy guns, swords, or other weapons are also not permitted, as these can cause panic among passengers and could be mistaken for a real threat.
