''This is about an urban village in Delhi, India. For the Capital of Bangladesh, see [[Dhaka]]''<br />
<br />
'''Dhaka''' is an urban village in the North West district of [[Delhi]], [[India]], and is located near [[Kingsway Camp]]. It hosts 1500 houses and two ''[[chaupal (public space)|chaupals]]'' and Park namely Prithvi Raj Chauhan Park. Much of the agricultural land in the village was acquired by the [[Delhi Development Authority]] post the [[partition of India]] to house migrants from [[Pakistan]]. These areas include Outram Line, Mukherjee Nagar, West Mukherjee Nagar, Bhai Parmanand Colony, Indira Vihar, Gandhi Vihar and Nehru Vihar. A large structure called the ''Pathar Wali Kothi'', originally constructed by a Muslim family before the [[partition of India]], stands in this small settlement. <br />
<br />
[[Delhi University]] is situated merely 1.5&nbsp;km from Dhaka village. Its proximity to the university as well as to Mukherjee Nagar (a hub for IAS coaching classes) makes it a preferable location to rent student accommodation. Consequently, many single rooms are available to students in the area. Other notable places near the village include [[Harijan Sevak Sangh]] (Gandhi Ashram), Nirankari Sarovar, Batra Hall and Naini Lake in [[Model Town (Delhi)|Model Town]]. The International Hostel for Girls opposite Indira Vihar is also located near Dhaka. The place is 10 mins walk from Guru Teg Bahadur (GTB) Nagar Metro Station and is primarily inhabited by people from the northern part of India mostly Rajputs (Chauhans).The area houses accommodation for students studying in DU and for IAS coaching classes.<br />
