Four gates spread out over the area, labelled for Rajendra Bhawan (Gate 1), BLK Hospital (Gate 2), Old Rajinder Nagar (Gate 3) and Krishi Kunj (Gate 4). Westbound trains run to Dwarka Sector 21; eastbound ones go either to Noida Electronic City or to Vaishali, the branch that leaves the main line at Yamuna Bank.

Departure times from this station on a weekday, as DMRC’s journey planner gives them (checked on Tuesday 20 October 2026; the planner takes no date). DMRC does not publish separate Saturday, Sunday or holiday times for each station, and on special days it announces changes in advance. A last train after midnight belongs to the previous evening’s service. “Not published” means DMRC’s own answer was inconsistent (arrival before departure), so we leave it out.
