"A man allegedly jumped in front of an approaching train at Jangpura on Line-6 heading towards Badarpur around 1.56 p.m... (the body) being taken out from the train's underframe. So, there will be a little delay on this section till the track is cleared," the Delhi Metro Rail Corp said in a statement here.
The deceased was later identified as Mayur Sharma, aged 23, who jumped on the tracks at the Jangpura station, disrupting services on the Central Secretariat-Faridabad section.
Sharma, a resident of Sadiq Nagar in south Delhi, died before he could be given any medical help, a senior police official said.
"He was preparing for competitive examinations. His father is a coast guard," he added.
The Violet Line connects the Kashmere Gate station in New Delhi with Escorts Mujesar in Faridabad.
