Red Line History, Facts & Expansion
- The Red Line was the first line of the Delhi Metro.
- The Delhi Metro Red Line was inaugurated on 25 December 2002 by the then Prime Minister of India, Atal Bihari Vajpayee, and opened to the public on the same day.
- The Red Line has interchanges with the Yellow and Violet lines at Kashmere Gate, with the Green Line at Inderlok, and with the Pink Line at Netaji Subhash Place and Welcome.
- An announcement dated 07 July 2023 proposed that the Delhi Metro Rail Corporation (DMRC)'s Rithala-Narela corridor could possibly be extended to Kundli in Haryana to provide additional connectivity to the neighbouring state.
- If approved, the entire metro line will be 27.319 km long with 22 stations, while the corridor will be 26.339 km elevated, with 21 of the 22 stations being elevated and one at grade.
- The Delhi Metro Red Line has 29 stations, all of which are elevated, making it unique among other metro lines that have both underground and elevated sections.
- The security of the Red Line is handled by the Central Industrial Security Force, a paramilitary force.
Delhi Metro Red Line Extension in Phase IV
The Union Cabinet on 06 December 2024 has approved the Rithala-Narela-Nathupur corridor of the fourth phase project of Delhi Metro. The corridor is to be completed in 4 years from the date of approval. Under this project, the Shaheed Sthal (New Bus Adda)-Rithala Red Line corridor will be extended. This 26.463 km long line will have 21 elevated stations, which will connect Rithala in Delhi to Nathupur. These mainly include Narela, Bawana, Rohini Sector and Kundli.
This will be the fourth extension of Delhi Metro in Haryana, which will connect to the existing routes of Gurugram, Ballabhgarh and Bahadurgarh.

There is no single-station interchange between the Red Line and the Blue Line. Passengers can use one of the following two-step routes depending on the desired destination:
\n- Via Yellow Line (central route):
Take the Red Line to Kashmere Gate, change to the Yellow Line, travel to Rajiv Chowk, and then change to the Blue Line.
- Via Green Line (west route):
Take the Red Line to Inderlok, change to the Green Line, travel to Kirti Nagar, and then change to the Blue Line.
- Via Pink Line (multiple options):
Take the Red Line to Netaji Subhash Place or Welcome, change to the Pink Line, then transfer at an appropriate interchange (for example Rajouri Garden, Karkarduma, Anand Vihar, or Mayur Vihar Phase I) to reach the Blue Line station closest to the final destination.
Tip: Choose the route based on the final destination — Rajiv Chowk is best for central Delhi (Connaught Place), Kirti Nagar for western destinations, and the Pink Line options for eastern targets.
