New Delhi: This week tends to see the opening of two important stretches of Metro Delhi – Extension of Gray Lines (Dwarka-Najafgarh) to Dhansa Bus Holders and Opening of “Looked Links” between Trilokpuri and Vihar Pocket-1 Mayor Pink Station (Park Majlis).
“Najafgarh-Dhansa’s long bus corridors for 1 km are ready for operation after receiving mandatory approval from the Safety Commissioner of Metro Rail.
Another date of opening will be intimized immediately,” said Anuj Dayal, Executive Director (Communication Company), Delhi Metro Rail Corporation.
With the opening of this extension, the Delhi Metro network will be 390 km with 286 stations.
The Dwarka-Najafgarh section of the 5.4km gray line opened in 2019 with three stations – Dwarka, Nangli and Najafgarh.
Only an extension of 1.2 km from the remaining Dhansa Bus Stand to open.
“Looked Links” in Trilokpuri on the pink line, the longest corridor of Delhi Metro, which caused the line to function as two separate corridors, it would likely open to the public this week.
Two and a half years after the first line opened, DMRC managed to bridge the gap between Trilokpuri and Pocket-1 Vihar Pocket Station last month.
58.6km-long pink line is one of the most ambitious corridors built by DMRC and also called “corridor ring” because it functions as a bow, connecting all existing corridors.
However, the unavailability of land in Trilokpuri means that the DMRC cannot build a crucial stretch.
As a result, while one part of the corridor operates from Majlis Park to Mayur Vihar Pocket-1, with the train upside down from there, the train coming from Shiv Vihar returns from Trilokpuri.
After operating, this section will connect two pink lines and provide smooth connectivity to various regions and connect important transportation hubs, such as Nizamuddin train station, Sarai Kale Khan Istbt, ant and train stations, and prominently, and prominent markets such as Sarojini Nagar, Lajpat Nagar and Ina.
Dayal said that the Stand Station Dhansa Bus has been decorated with interesting art and photos, featuring rich heritage, culture, flora and fauna in the suburbs.

It is rich in historical content and also a home for swamp ecosystems that encourage visits of birds migrating and developed rapidly from local wildlife.

A hand-painted artwork shows residents come together to respect the essence of their values ​​and them themed “urban-rural-urban developments”.
“Agriculture and livestock are the main source of income for the local population, but real estate projects and event venues contribute significantly to economic development.
