Expanding the existing metro network in Delhi and second as MLA of Najafgarh - a new metro station Dhansa Bus Stand is being added in the Najafgarh constituencyThis segment was earlier scheduled to be inaugurated on August 6 but it was postponed two days before the slated date due to issues with an approach road to the stationPuri the Union Minister for Housing and Urban Affairs in his address during the inauguration event said connections such as the one to Dhansa will play a vital role in reaching to rural areas and the gap between the rural and urban parts of Delhi is now being bridged with such connections which are going deep into the outer and suburban areas of the national capital And indeed with the Delhi Metro penetrating deeper into the semi-urban areas of the national capital the whole paradigm of life in villages of Najafgarh and neighbouring areas are set to be transformedNajafgarh Jheel is also located in the area which attracts migratory birds and the region is rich in cultural heritage like old buildings and traditional fairs all of which is reflected inside the premises of the new Dhansa Bus Stand stationThe walls inside the station have been adorned with attractive artwork and photographs which display the rich heritage culture flora and fauna of this suburban locality of the national capitalThese artwork depict various themes including birds traditional wear of villagers their customs and practices in a way symbolically fusing the old heritage with cutting-edge technology that Delhi Metro represents the pioneering mass rapid transit system that has brought many of the most unknown areas and obscure location in the city on this new-age transportation system mapThe Union minister emphasised on the importance of urban transportation saying Efficient urban transport system makes it possible for people to buy property or have residence at a distance and commute impacts land valuation and urban planning and benefits urban policiesThe Dhansa Bus Stand station is also an accomplishment for the Delhi Metro as in a first for the DMRC network it has built as an underground integrated parking facility at the station that will allow commuters to park their vehicles and move to the concourse area directlyThe facility will be of great benefit to the local residents as the adjoining areas are extremely congested with very limited space for parking of vehicles it said PTI KND TDS TDS
