About Patel Nagar
Patel Nagar Metro Station is an elevated Blue Line station in the Patel Nagar area of West-Central Delhi. Opened in 2005, the station serves one of Delhi's established and densely commercial residential colonies, where local market streets, coaching institutes, and community facilities create a vibrant neighbourhood character.
