Do You Want To Change Train At Rajiv Chowk Delhi Metro Station?

I usually travel by Delhi Metro while going to and coming back from office. And every day while going back to my Noida home from Gurgaon (where I have my office), I have to get down at Rajiv Chowk metro station to catch the Noida bound train from there. It may be mentioned here that Rajiv Chowk acts as the “connecting station” for trains headed towards either Noida or Anand Vihar or Dwarka, the route named “Blue Lines”.

Now, almost everyday at Rajiv Chowk metro station I come across people who want to catch trains headed towards either Noida or Anand Vihar or Dwarka, but are clueless about it. They keep asking people, and run from here to there.

Please permit me to offer some directions to them. I hope it will be helpful for at least few commuters.

You want to board Dwarka bound Train?

That you have to catch from Platform No. 4. After getting down at Rajiv Chowk station, just climb the staircase and go to the upper part of the station. Now ask people about the platform for Dwarka bound train. Or you can ask them about how to reach the Platform No. 4. Once you reach Platform No. 4, just wait for you train.

You want to board Train headed towards Noida/Anand Vihar?

That you have to catch from the Platform No. 3. After getting down at Rajiv Chowk station, just climb the staircase and go to the upper part of the station. Now ask people about the platform for Noida/Anand Vihar bound train. Or you can ask them about how to reach the Platform No. 3.

After you reach Platform No. 3, wait for you train. But remember one thing that it is a common platform for both Noida bound and Anand Vihar bound trains. Both of them pass through this platform, and have a common route till Yamuna Bank station. So before boarding the train, make sure about it that you are boarding the right train.

There is an electronic display board, which displays the destination of the forthcoming train. Keep an eye on the same.

However, if after boarding the train you come to know that you have boarded the wrong train, do not panic. As I have told you that trans headed towards both Noida and Anand Vihar have a common route till Yamuna Bank station. So if you have boarded the wrong train, get down at Yamuna Bank station and wait for the right train.

Remember – If the Yamuna Bank station falls on the right side of the train, then it is a Noida bound train. And if the station falls on the left side of the train, then it is heading towards Anand Vihar.
