Delhi: Tickets for India International Trade Fair will be available at 65 metro stations.
Tickets for the India International Trade Fair to be held from November 14-27 will be available at 65 Delhi Metro stations, officials said on Friday. The fair was not organized last year due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
The Delhi Metro Rail Corporation said it will start selling India International Trade Fair (IITF) entry tickets for ‘Business Day’ from November 14 and for the general public from November 19.
The ‘business days’ of the trade fair are from 14 to 18 November while the general public days are from 19 to 27 November.
IITF entry tickets will be available only at 65 selected metro stations. DMRC said that tickets can be purchased from the customer care centers of these stations from 9 am to 4 pm.
These stations include Shaheed Sthal New Bus Adda, Mohan Nagar, Dilshad Garden, Shahdara, Seelampur, Inderlok, Netaji Subhash Place, Rohini West, Rithala, Noida Electronic City, Sector-52 Noida, Noida City Centre, Noida Sector -15, Akshardham, Indraprastha, Mandi House, and Barakhamba station.
IITF tickets will not be available for sale at the Supreme Court Metro Station. This station is next to Pragati Maidan, the site of the fair.
Additional ticket counters, guards, officers and staff will be deployed as required at the Supreme Court Metro Station and other stations to cater to the rush during the trade fair.
The commerce ministry said in early October that after a gap of one year, IITF would be held at Pragati Maidan in the national capital from November 14 to 27, with the theme ‘Atmanirbhar Bharat’.
India Trade Promotion Organization organizes this mega event, which was first organized in 1979.
The fair was not held in 2020 due to the COVID-19 pandemic. This was the second time in the history that IITF was not organized. This happened for the first time in 1980.
