Phase III connections
Under the Delhi Metro Phase III plan, the Violet Line is being extended from its current terminus to meet the Yellow and Red Lines at Kashmere Gate station. This will provide an alternative route between Central Secretariat and Kashmere Gate, alleviating crowds on the heavily used Yellow Line.[2]
