Hi there, welcome to the forum!

Overview

The Delhi Metro covers the city of Delhi, along with the outskirts of the city like Faridabad, Gurgaon, Noida and of course, Ghaziabad. It is one of the most extensive local train networks around the world. It has an estimated 20 million passengers on a daily basis, making it one of the most utilised metro systems in the world too. Another good feature of the Delhi Metro is that some stations are directly just adjacent to some of the stations of the Indian Railways. Some of these are the Anand Vihar Metro Station, Chandni Chowk Metro Station, Nangloi Metro Station and of course, the New Delhi Metro Station.
