## Location and role
The station stands in the Burari neighborhood of North Delhi, in the Model Town area of the North Delhi district.[7](https://mapcarta.com/N5215706767) Before the metro arrived, the area was served mainly by road transport; the Burari Transport Authority bus stop nearby is served by 20 DTC and Delhi Transit (Cluster) bus routes, giving passengers a last-mile connection between bus and metro.[8](https://www.dtcbusroutes.in/bus/stop/14532/burari-transport-authority/)
The [Government of India](https://www.edgepedia.org/government-of-india) listed Burari among the areas expected to benefit from the new connectivity when the corridors opened, together with Jagatpur-Wazirabad, Khajuri Khas, Bhajanpura, Yamuna Vihar, Madhuban Chowk, Haiderpur Badli Mor, Bhalaswa, and Majlis Park.[5](https://www.pib.gov.in/PressReleasePage.aspx?PRID=2236008&lang=1®=20) Hindi-language coverage after the opening described the extension as giving Burari, Jharoda Majra, Jagatpur, and Wazirabad a new public-transport link across the Yamuna.[9](https://navbharattimes.indiatimes.com/metro/delhi/other-news/delhi-metro-pink-line-extension-improves-connectivity-for-burari-jagatpur-and-nearby-areas/articleshow/129449264.cms)
## Construction
Burari station was built under [Phase IV](https://www.edgepedia.org/phase-iv) of the Delhi Metro. The Union Cabinet approved the Phase IV priority corridors in March 2019, including the Maujpur–Mukundpur (Majlis Park) corridor on which Burari sits.[10](https://www.pib.gov.in/PressReleasePage.aspx?PRID=1567788&lang=2®=48) The civil contract covering the station, Contract DC-02, covered the elevated viaduct from Maujpur to Majlis Park, a bridge across the Yamuna, and eight elevated stations including Burari, from chainage 0.0 m to 12,098.520 m of the Majlis Park–Maujpur corridor. It was awarded in December 2019 to the joint venture of Longjian and KEC International for ₹10.8 billion (₹1,080 crore).[6](https://backend.delhimetrorail.com/documents/1247/LIST-OF-CONTRACTS-AWARDED-FROM-DMRC-CONTRACTS-SECTION-FROM_01.01.2019_to_31.12.2019.pdf) A separate contract covered mechanized cleaning and housekeeping for the eight stations from Burari to Yamuna Vihar on the Line 7 extension.[11](https://afd.dgmarket.com/tenders/adminShowBuyer.do?buyerId=7247228&d-446978-n=1&d-446978-p=4&d-446978-s=b&selPageNumber=4&source=)
The corridor's engineering includes two notable structures: a new bridge over the Yamuna and a 1.4 km double-decker viaduct between Bhajanpura and Yamuna Vihar, with the metro on the upper deck at about 18.5 meters elevation and a road flyover on the lower deck at about 9.5 meters.[12](https://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/city/delhi/pink-line-comes-full-circle-as-delhi-metro-grows-to-416km/articleshow/129286201.cms) • [13](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x-_btGwLJeE)
## Opening and the circular Pink Line
Prime Minister Narendra Modi inaugurated the Majlis Park–Maujpur-Babarpur section at a ceremony on 8 March 2026 at the DDA ground on Burari Road, and train services began the same day at 3 pm.[14](https://economictimes.indiatimes.com/industry/transportation/railways/delhi-metro-begins-operations-on-pink-magenta-line-extensions/articleshow/129264693.cms) • [15](https://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/city/delhi/rs-33500-crore-development-push-for-delhi-pm-narendra-modi-to-inaugurate-key-metro-corridors-and-more-what-you-need-to-know/articleshow/129254569.cms) The same event opened the Deepali Chowk–Majlis Park section of the Magenta Line.[3](https://www.jica.go.jp/english/overseas/india/information/press/2025/1579308_59609.html)
With this extension, the Pink Line became the first line of the Delhi Metro to form a complete circular route, running 71.5 km with 46 stations, and the longest metro line enabled for unattended train operation at GoA4 level in India.[2](https://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/city/delhi/pink-line-comes-full-circle-as-delhi-metro-grows-to-416km/articleshow/129286201.cms) • [16](https://www.alstom.com/press-releases-news/2026/3/delhi-metro-line-7-and-line-8-extension-commences-revenue-service-alstoms-trains-and-signalling-system) The additions took the Delhi Metro network to 416 km with 303 stations across the National Capital Region.[2](https://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/city/delhi/pink-line-comes-full-circle-as-delhi-metro-grows-to-416km/articleshow/129286201.cms)
## Service
Burari has no interchange connection of its own; the nearest interchange is Majlis Park, about 2 km away, where the Pink Line meets the Magenta Line.[7](https://mapcarta.com/N5215706767) On the line, the station sits between Majlis Park toward the south and Jharoda Majra toward the northeast, on the arc of the circle that runs through North Delhi.[4](https://metrosafar.com/delhi-metro/map/pink-line) The adjacent Jagatpur-Wazirabad station is one stop away, with a published fare of ₹21 and a running time of about 4 minutes.[17](https://metrogo.in/route/jagatpur-wazirabad-delhi-metro-to-burari-delhi-metro) The station has no metro-operated parking facility.[1](https://yometro.com/burari-metro-station-110252)
