Passengers are prompted to smile, nod, or wave to fellow riders for community building.

Delhi Metro has implemented Positive Gesture Campaign, digital prompts encouraging commuters to engage in brief gestures of friendliness, such as waving, nodding, or smiling. According to NDTV, the initiative aims to boost morale and foster civic engagement.

Commuters report increased happiness, social bonding, and laughter. Organizers provide moderation, timing schedules, and optional participation. Critics question consistency, but psychologists highlight emotional reinforcement, commuter satisfaction, and social cohesion. Future plans include themed weeks, competitions, and interactive app integration.
