Delhi | Sunday | 5th August, 2018

Summary:

“We just finished shopping at Lajpat Nagar and are now going to Sarojini Nagar. As the Pink Line station is built above the existing tunnel of Yellow Line, passengers have to go below the platform to reach the Yellow Line station, confusing many on the first day despite ample signage. Only a few shops were open in both, but street vendors had a good day.The stretch, opened to the public after 1pm, connects four major markets — Sarojini Nagar, INA, South Extension and Lajpat Nagar. “Earlier, I had to get down at INA station and then take an auto to reach the market. The other stations are Sir Vishweshwaraiah Moti Bagh and Bhikaji Cama Place.Shagun Dhingra, a student, had come all the way from Gurgaon to visit Sarojini Nagar market..
