A separate section between Shiv Vihar to Trilokpuri-Sanjay Lake was opened on 31 October 2018 and the initial section was extended to [[Shree Ram Mandir Mayur Vihar]] (formerly known as Mayur Vihar Pocket-1) on 31 December 2018. | ||

On the eastern section, trains would run in separate loops - Shiv Vihar to Maujpur-Babarpur, Maujpur-Babarpur to IP Extension/Trilokpuri-Sanjay Lake. Every third train from Maujpur-Babarpur would move beyond IP Extension to Trilokpuri-Sanjay Lake as the latter has no reversal facilities and single line movement took place in that section.

The Pink Line (Line 7) is a line of the Delhi Metro, a rapid transit system in Delhi, India.[1] It consists of 46 stations between Maujpur - Babarpur via Majlis Park and Shiv Vihar and, at 73.49 kilometres (45.66 mi), is the Delhi Metro's — and India's — longest metro line. The Pink Line is India's first operational ring metro. It is also known as the Ring Road Line, as it mostly passes alongside the city's Inner Ring Road.[2]:86
The Pink Line has interchanges with most of the operational lines of the network, such as the Magenta Line at Majlis Park, Red Line at Netaji Subhash Place & Welcome, Yellow Line at Azadpur & Dilli Haat - INA, Green Line at Punjabi Bagh West, Blue Line at Rajouri Garden, Mayur Vihar Phase-I, Anand Vihar & Karkarduma, Dhaula Kuan of Airport Express (Orange Line) at Durgabai Deshmukh South Campus, Violet Line at Lajpat Nagar, as well as with Hazrat Nizamuddin and Anand Vihar Terminal (Indian Railways / Namo Bharat) and the ISBTs at Anand Vihar and Sarai Kale Khan.
The Pink Line has the highest point above ground on the Delhi Metro at Dhaula Kuan with a height of 23.6 metres (77 ft), passing over the Dhaula Kuan grade separator flyovers and the Airport Express Line.[3] It possesses the country's smallest metro station, Ashram, with a size of just 151.6 metres (497 ft) against the usual 265 metres (869 ft).[2]:93 The usual platform length for a six-coach train on this route is 140 metres (459 ft) but it has been reduced to 135 metres (443 ft) in Ashram station.
A feeder line from Shiv Vihar has separate services; passengers have to change platforms to continue on the main route.[4]
History[edit | edit source]
The line was initially put on table as a metro route that would run almost along the Delhi's busy Ring Road, on the lines of the existing Delhi Circular Railway. A route length of 59.24 kilometres (36.81 mi)[5] was proposed from Majlis Park to Shiv Vihar, that would cut through all the existing lines at various interchanges as part of Phase 3's expansion plans.
Currently, there are 46 stations in the Pink Line, out of which 34 are elevated and 12 are underground.
The line was opened in stages from 2018 to 2026. The first section on the Pink Line become operational from 14 March 2018 between Majlis Park to Durgabai Deshmukh South Campus, it was then extended to Lajpat Nagar on 6 August 2018. A separate section between Shiv Vihar to Trilokpuri-Sanjay Lake was opened on 31 October 2018 and the initial section was extended to Shree Ram Mandir Mayur Vihar (formerly known as Mayur Vihar Pocket-1) on 31 December 2018.
The section between Trilokpuri Sanjay Lake and Shree Ram Mandir Mayur Vihar was not completed as construction of a 1.5 km (0.93 mi) viaduct began late due to land acquisition issues at Trilokpuri.[6] This had rendered the Pink Line into two independent lines and forced DMRC to convert the Shree Ram Mandir Mayur Vihar (formerly known as Mayur Vihar Pocket-1) station into a terminating station with reversal facilities so that trains from Majlis Park would terminate there. On the eastern section, trains would run in separate loops - Shiv Vihar to Maujpur-Babarpur, Maujpur-Babarpur to IP Extension/Trilokpuri-Sanjay Lake. Every third train from Maujpur-Babarpur would move beyond IP Extension to Trilokpuri-Sanjay Lake as the latter has no reversal facilities and single line movement took place in that section. Both disjoint sections were finally bridged on 6 August 2021.[7]
In December 2024, trial runs were initiated on the Phase 4 extension from Majlis Park to Jagatpur Village stations which were gradually done till Sonia Vihar and finally Maujpur-Babarpur by August 2025. The Majlis Park to Maujpur - Babarpur stretch was opened on 8 March 2026, making this line India’s first ring metro line.
