Little India MRT Station (NE7/DT12) is an underground Mass Rapid Transit (MRT) station on the North East Line in Singapore and as the name implies, serves the ethnic neighbourhood of Little India.[1] On the North East line, it is between the Dhoby Ghaut Interchange and Farrer Park MRT stations.
This station was built in the heart of Little India, with Tekka Centre and Tekka Mall within walking distance of the station.
This station will be an interchange station to the future Downtown MRT Line.[2]
