Housing and Urban Affairs Minister Manohar Lal today inaugurated the commencement of construction work at the Central Secretariat Metro Station for the Central Vista Corridor in the national capital.
Speaking to the media, the minister described the moment as historic and highlighted that the project will significantly streamline daily transit for government employees and all professionals, promising smoother and more efficient commuting across Delhi. He said that this project will run from RK Ashram Marg to Indraprastha. It will include a station at Shivaji Stadium in between. He added that, once completed, it will enable seamless commuting services from Janakpuri West to Indralok, creating a full loop.
The station is being developed under Phase V (A) as an extension of the existing Magenta Line from Janakpuri West to RK Ashram Marg. The Central Secretariat station will become a triple interchange station, where the new Magenta Line station will seamlessly connect with the existing Yellow Line and Violet Line. The corridor spans over 9 km with nine underground stations.
