Forgot something at the Metro? Found, but not claimed at the Lost Property Office
The Lost Property Office of the Delhi Metro Rail Corporation (DMRC) jotted down the first entry in its logbook on January 17, 2004 —Rs 1,100 in banknotes found at a platform in the Kashmere Gate Metro station.
But six years and 870 other finds later, the money still awaits its owner in a steel almirah of the LPO office in the same station.
Sanjeev Kumar Sharma, the manager of the Kashmere Gate Metro Station and the ex-officio in-charge of the LPO, explained how a lost article finds its way to the Kashmere Gate office. “For the first 24 hours, the articles are kept at the station from where they are found. After that, they are transferred to the Kashmere Gate Metro station. At every step, details of the item found are meticulously noted down,” he said.
