The Dhaula Kuan (Template:Lang-hi) Metro Station is located on the Delhi Airport Express Line of the Delhi Metro. This station is the only elevated one along the Airport Express Line and features check-in facilities.[1] It did not commence operations along with the rest of the line and trains ran through the station without stopping initially. It was opened to the public for the first time on Independence Day, 15 August 2011.
Under the Phase III network, another parallel station under the name Durgabai Deshmukh South Campus would be built parallel to the existing station. The distance between the duo stations would be approximately 500 metres and the duo would be connected using a travelator.
