Rajiv Chowk metro station, Metro interchange station in Connaught Place, New Delhi, India
Rajiv Chowk is an underground interchange station in New Delhi that connects the Blue Line and Yellow Line of the Delhi Metro system. The station features different platform designs depending on which line you use.
The station began operations on the Yellow Line in July 2005 and was later expanded to include the Blue Line in December of the same year. These openings were part of the Delhi Metro system's expansion during that period.
The station is named after former Prime Minister Rajiv Gandhi and serves the business district around Connaught Place, a major shopping and office hub in the city.
The station has multiple entry and exit points providing access to theaters, markets, and the surrounding business district. Operations run smoothly throughout the day, with clear signage to help you navigate between the two lines.
The station features contrasting platform arrangements: the Yellow Line uses a center platform while the Blue Line has side platforms. This design was a solution tailored to the specific needs of the two different lines at this location.
