The Story in Brief
Delhi Metro will start services from 4 am on Independence Day (August 15) to help invitees and security personnel reach the Red Fort event. Regular passengers can travel as usual from the first train. Invitees with valid physical admit cards from the Ministry of Defence will get special pre-vended QR tickets at designated metro stations, NDTV reports.

The real story is the efficiency of ticket distribution to Defence Ministry invitees. One number to watch on August 15 is how long the queues at the designated QR ticket counters actually take.
