History

The work started in 2015. The deadline of completion was delayed due to multiple issues. [4]

In September 2017, Alpha-numeric numbers were given to Metro Rail pillars to link them with the Google map for citizens and tourists to identify different locations of the Metro Rail network. [5]

In November 2017, Telangana State Power Transmission Corporation planned to start supplying uninterrupted power to metro rail network from four dedicated 132 KV receiving substations (RSS) at Uppal and Miyapur metro depots, Yousufguda and MGBS. [6]

On 27 September 2018, The Chief Electrical Inspector (CEIG) for Hyderabad Metro Rail accorded sanction for energisation. The Yousufguda 132 kV /33 kV /25 kV Metro RSS was the fourth and the last RSS that was energised. [7] [8]

In November 2018, on the occasion of the first anniversary of the L&T Metro train operations, the trial run of the Metro train between Ameerpet and Hi-tec City (Corridor III) began. [9]

On 20 March 2019, the station was opened and Governor E.S.L. Narasimhan flagged off Metro train services on Ameerpet-Hitec City stretch (10 km) of Corridor-III (Nagole-Ameerpet-Hitec City). [10] [11]

In August 2019, Hyderabad Metro Rail Limited announced that the average train frequency on the busy route from Nagole to Hitec City will be increased to 4 minutes during peak hours which was previously about 7 to 15 minutes. [12]

In 2020, due to Covid-19 restrictions the platform was closed. It remained closed even after rest of the metro started as it was located in a containment zone. [13]
