The 3.9km Kalindi Kunj–Tughlaqabad corridor, an extension of the Golden Line, will connect the Magenta and Violet metro lines. The new stretch is designed to strengthen connectivity along the Yamuna riverfront while improving travel between Noida, Delhi and Faridabad through a better integrated metro network. (AI image)
The new corridor will include four stations. Sarita Vihar Depot, Madanpur Khadar and Kalindi Kunj will be elevated stations, while Tughlaqabad will be built underground. This combination will form the complete 3.9km stretch connecting key areas in southeast Delhi. (AI image)
Kalindi Kunj will serve as an interchange station connecting the Golden and Magenta lines, while Tughlaqabad will link the Golden and Violet lines. These two interchange stations will strengthen integration with the existing Delhi Metro network and improve passenger movement. (AI image)
According to DMRC, the new corridor will boost connectivity for residential clusters and emerging industrial pockets in southeast Delhi. It will also provide direct access to residential areas such as Saket and Chhatarpur while improving links between Noida, Faridabad, south and west Delhi. (AI image)
The Kalindi Kunj–Tughlaqabad corridor, part of DMRC’s Phase V(A) expansion, is expected to be completed by late 2028. Alongside this project, construction is currently underway on five Phase IV metro corridors, including extensions of the Golden, Magenta and Red lines. (AI image)
DMRC said the new corridor will help reduce road congestion and emissions on the Noida–Faridabad route as well as on roads connecting to the airport. By offering an additional metro connection, the project is expected to improve travel efficiency for daily commuters. (AI image)
Since the corridor is an extension of the Aerocity–Tughlaqabad route, it will provide connectivity to both the domestic and international terminals of IGI Airport. The project is expected to improve access between different parts of Delhi and the airport through the expanding metro network. (AI image)
