'''Safdarjung''' area consists of mainly two localities in [[South Delhi]], namely '''Safdarjung Enclave''' and '''Safdarjung Development Area''' ('''SDA''').<ref>{{cite news |title=Television crew from Taiwan were shooting for travel show |url=http://www.indianexpress.com/news/television-crew-from-taiwan-were-shooting-fo/684097/ |newspaper=[[Indian Express]] |date=20 September 2010 }}</ref><ref>{{cite news |title=RS MPs still looking for a plot|url=http://articles.timesofindia.indiatimes.com/2006-01-12/india/27800449_1_slum-dwellers-rs-mps-plot |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20120925061243/http://articles.timesofindia.indiatimes.com/2006-01-12/india/27800449_1_slum-dwellers-rs-mps-plot |url-status=dead |archive-date=25 September 2012 |newspaper=[[The Times of India]] |date=12 January 2006 }}</ref> There are several districts (called ''colonies'') in [[Delhi]] located south to the [[Safdarjung's Tomb|tomb]] of [[Safdarjung]], the second [[Nawab of Awadh]], and an important administrator in the [[Mughal emperors|Mughal]] Imperial courts in Delhi, under [[Muhammad Shah]] in the 18th century.

Safdarjung Enclave, developed by the [[Delhi Lease and Finance]] later [[DLF Limited]] after acquiring the farm lands from [[Humayunpur]] Village in the early 1960s under then Prime Minister Pandit [[Jawahar Lal Nehru]] is located just south of the [[Ring Road]] and north of the [[Hauz Khas]] Deer Park. South of Hauz Khas village is Safdarjung Development Area (SDA), built in the 1960s as an extension towards south. Both colonies are primarily residential.

Safdarjung Enclave built after [[Partition of India|Partition]] did not include land grants for refugees from what is now [[Pakistan]].

The airstrip next to [[Safdarjung's Tomb]] that occupies the area between it and Safdarjung Enclave, formerly Delhi's main airport, is now known as [[Safdarjung Airport]] and is the home of the Delhi Flying Club. Many official flights for the Central and State government also leave and arrive here rather than at Delhi's main airports Palam & Indira Gandhi International.
