== History ==

=== Pink Line ===
In June 2017, Bangalore Metro Rail Corporation Limited (BMRCL) sought bids for constructing the Nagawara metro station along the 4.59 km Shadi Mahal Ramp - North Ramp stretch of the 21.25 km [[Pink Line (Namma Metro)|Pink Line]] of Namma Metro. In November 2019, ITD Cementation India emerged as the lowest bidder for this stretch which aligned closely with the original estimate, thus leading to successful award for this company. They commenced the construction of this metro station as per the agreements.<ref>{{Cite web |date=2020-09-02 |title=ITD Cem Begins Work on Bangalore Metro's Underground Stations |url=https://themetrorailguy.com/2020/09/02/itd-cem-begins-work-on-bangalore-metros-underground-stations/ |access-date=2025-04-09 |website=The Metro Rail Guy |language=en-US}}</ref>

Unlike other underground stations on the Pink Line, Nagawara station features a different design. Typically, both the concourse level (ticketing and security area) and the train platforms are located underground. However, at Nagawara, BMRCL chose to construct the concourse level at ground level (at grade), while keeping the train platforms underground. The primary reason for this decision was due to the presence of a Rajakaluve (stormwater drain) near the northern end and make it easier for future expansion if it takes place.<ref name=":0">{{Cite web |last=Lalitha |first=S. |date=2024-09-06 |title=At ground level and underground, Nagawara to be unique Metro station |url=https://www.newindianexpress.com/cities/bengaluru/2024/Sep/06/at-ground-level-and-underground-nagawara-to-be-unique-metro-station |access-date=2025-07-14 |website=The New Indian Express |language=en}}</ref>

=== Blue Line ===
On November 17, 2020, the Bangalore Metro Rail Corporation Limited (BMRCL) invited bids for the construction of the metro station, part of the 11 km Reach 2B – Package 1 (Krishnarajapura - Kempapura) of the 37.692 km [[Blue Line (Namma Metro)|Blue Line]] of Namma Metro. On September 14, 2021, Nagarjuna Construction Company Ltd. '''(NCC Ltd.)''' was chosen as the lowest bidder for this segment, with their proposal closely matching the initial cost estimates.<ref>{{Cite web |date=2021-09-14 |title=NCC Wins Bangalore Metro Airport Line's Construction Work |url=https://themetrorailguy.com/2021/09/14/ncc-wins-bangalore-metro-airport-lines-construction-work/ |access-date=2024-10-24 |website=The Metro Rail Guy |language=en-US}}</ref> As a result, the contract was awarded to the company, which led to the beginning of the construction works of this metro station as per the agreed terms.<ref>{{Cite web |last=Service |first=Express News |date=2021-09-16 |title=Nagarjuna Construction Company wins bid to build Namma Metro's Airport Line |url=https://www.newindianexpress.com/cities/bengaluru/2021/Sep/16/nagarjuna-construction-companywinsbid-to-build-namma-metros-airport-line-2359335.html |access-date=2024-10-24 |website=The New Indian Express |language=en}}</ref>

=== Nagawara One ===
Nagawara one is a under construction commercial complex on top of the underground station. The commercial complex is expected to be of four floors with a toal area of 27,000 square meters.<ref name=":0" />
