Krishna Nagar Metro Station
Pink Line · East Delhi, Delhi
About Krishna Nagar metro station
Krishna Nagar joined the network on 31 October 2018, when this stretch of the Phase III Pink Line opened. DMRC classes it as elevated, and it has side platforms.
The two gates split the station between its two neighbourhoods: Gate 1 leads to Krishna Nagar Market and Gate 2 to Vishwas Nagar. On the Pink Line ring, East Azad Nagar is 1.7 minutes away and Karkarduma Court 1.8 minutes. Platform 2 is for trains towards Majlis Park and Yamuna Vihar, platform 1 for those towards Shiv Vihar and Maujpur-Babarpur. For the spur to Gokulpuri, Johri Enclave and Shiv Vihar, the change is at Maujpur-Babarpur, because ring and spur run as separate services.
First and last metro at Krishna Nagar
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.
