The Delhi Metro Rail Corporation has officially renamed the Mayur Vihar Pocket 1 metro station on the Pink Line as Shree Ram Mandir Mayur Vihar, following approval from the State Names Authority (SNA) Committee.
A senior DMRC official confirmed that the East Delhi station, located on the Pink Line’s Shiv Vihar–Majlis Park corridor, has been rechristened in line with the committee’s decision.
The station plays an important role on the busy Pink Line, serving daily commuters travelling across key stretches of East and North Delhi.
The newly named Shree Ram Mandir Mayur Vihar station has two platforms , one for trains heading towards Shiv Vihar and Maujpur-Babarpur, and the other for services bound for Majlis Park.
In terms of facilities, the station is equipped with four lifts and three escalators to improve accessibility.
Passenger amenities include a first-aid room, toilets, and a token vending machine, ensuring convenience for commuters using the station.
The renaming is part of a broader trend of updating metro station names to reflect local landmarks and cultural significance, while keeping connectivity and passenger services unchanged.
