A day after explosions hit Belgium's capital city Brussels, Minister of State for Home Affairs Haribhai Parthibhai Chaudhary on Wednesday took stock of the security arrangements at metro stations in the national capital.

Chaudhary travelled in the Delhi metro along with other security officials. He boarded the metro from Patel Chowk till Shastri Park via Kashmere Gate.

At least 30 people have lost their lives while over 200 seriously injured following the suspected terrorist attack at the Brussels airport.

Two explosions reportedly shook the building shortly after 8 a.m. local time, leaving the passengers terrified.

The incident took place four days after the arrest of Paris attack mastermind Salah Abdeslam from the Belgian capital.
