Delhi Metro Violet Line Phase-wise Expansion
Phase II (2010–2011) (Completed)
The Central Secretariat–Sarita Vihar section opened on 3 October 2010, followed by the Sarita Vihar–Badarpur Border extension on 14 January 2011. These developments expanded metro connectivity across South Delhi and improved access to residential and commercial areas. The corridor also laid the foundation for extending the Violet Line towards Faridabad in Haryana.
Phase III (2014–2018) (Completed)
Several extensions were completed during Phase III, including Mandi House–Central Secretariat in 2014 and ITO station in 2015. The Badarpur Border–Escorts Mujesar section opened in 2015, extending metro services into Faridabad. In 2017, the Kashmere Gate–ITO section, also known as the Heritage Line, improved connectivity to Old Delhi. The Escorts Mujesar–Raja Nahar Singh (Ballabhgarh) extension opened on 19 November 2018.
Next Phase: Ballabhgarh–Palwal (Approved)
The proposed approximately 24 km extension towards Palwal includes around 10 new stations along NH-44. Approved in October 2025 at an estimated cost of Rs 4,320 crore, the project targets completion by the end of 2028.
Future Phase: Towards Noida International Airport (Proposed)
A possible connection from Palwal towards Jewar Airport has been discussed, but it has no official approval or confirmed timeline.
