The Naraina Vihar metro station is an underground station on the Pink Line of Delhi Metro. A part of Phase 3, it serves Naraina Vihar, Naraina Village and the industrial areas of Shadipur and Loha Mandi along with parts of Mayapuri, and was opened to the public on 14 March 2018. [1] [2]
As per the detailed project report of phase 3, DMRC initially planned to build two elevated metro stations – Naraina 1 and Naraina 2 – on the ring road as part of the Pink Line. [3] However, it later changed this plan and decided to build only one underground station passing directly below the residential colony of Naraina Vihar. [4] This change was strongly opposed by the area's residents, who wrote to Delhi's chief minister and other senior officials opposing this move.
Following this, they went to the High Court of Delhi, which in Federation of Naraina Vihar Resident's Welfare Associations vs Union of India & Ors., ruled that the decision taken by DMRC was an executive one and should not be judicially interfered with, particularly since it did not suffer from "any perversity capable of correction without affecting the vital assumptions on which it is based." Accordingly, the petition was dismissed. [5]
The station is located 18 meters below the ground, and was the first one where both the station box and tunnel had to be constructed by utilizing the same space. This is because DMRC could not acquire enough land to build shafts for lowering the tunnel boring machines. Due to this, it took them 30 days to drag the TBMs over 210 meters, while ensuring that the platform was not damaged. [2]
