Dwarka

Overview :
Located in south west Delhi, Dwarka is one of the most sought-after localities in the national capital. Dwarka is a sub-city of Delhi as it falls under the jurisdiction of Delhi Development Authority (DDA). It is surrounded by NH-8, Outer Ring Road (ORR), Najafgarh Road, Pankha Road, and the Rewari railway line. It is a well-developed residential hub with robust social and physical infrastructure. The locality has several open spaces, leisure and cultural attractions for its residents. The transportation system of Dwarka is excellent with well-planned and well maintained road network.

Connectivity :
Dwarka has excellent connectivity to the Indira Gandhi International Airport (approx. 10kms) and New Delhi railway station (approx. 23 km).

The area is well connected to other parts of NCR via Delhi metro (Blue Line).

Availability of frequent Red and Green line buses, cabs and auto rickshaws make travelling easy in Dwarka.

Dwarka is also well connected to Gurgaon via Golf Course Road (approx. 17 km).

Factors for future growth :
Dwarka is known to have one of the most well planned road networks in Delhi-NCR with almost no traffic congestions.

Delhi metro (Blue Line) has increased connectivity of the locality which made Dwarka more accessible from other parts of NCR.

Blue Line of Delhi Metro has ten stations within Dwarka and runs through the locality making travelling within Dwarka very easy.

Development of Pankha Flyover and Palam Flyover has also eased traffic in their respective routes, further improving accessibility to the locality.

The area is in close proximity to the major business parks in Gurgaon that hosts various multinational companies such as Microsoft, IBM, KPMG, Ernst & Young, to name a few.

With skyrocketing prices, several sectors of Gurgaon have become unaffordable for many. Thus, Dwarka serves as an alternative residential destination for the professionals working at Gurgaon.

Infrastructure Developments – Social & Physical :
The upcoming Dwarka Expressway will connect Dwarka with NH-8 at Kherki Dhaula and will pass Pataudi Road in Gurgaon. Dwarka-Najafgarh Metro Corridor, which is under construction, will further boost Dwarka’s connectivity to other parts of NCR.

Prominent Schools in Dwarka are Maxfort School, The Indian Heights School, Nirmal Bhartiya School, Mount Carmel School etc.

Prominent Hospitals such as Artemis Hospital, Rockland Hospital, BENSUPS Hospital are present in the locality.

Major Challenges :
Delay in completion of Dwarka Expressway has adversely affected the locality as home buyers and investors are beginning to lose their interest in projects along the expressway.

The locality lacks proper sanitation facilities mainly for garbage disposal. Proper waste collection, disposal and management can rectify this issue.

Though Dwarka is known for its well-planned road network, inner roads and sidewalks are currently in poor condition.
