After the request of the people of Haryana, the Delhi Government on Wednesday extended the Delhi Transport Corporation (DTC) bus services to AIIMS situated at Badsa. These buses services will start from January 2023.
Informing about the route of the buses, a senior transport department official said that the bus plying on this route will have a stop on several locations including Najafgarh Terminal, Prem Nursery, Mitraon Village, Surhera Crossing, Ravata Crossing, Samaspur Khalsa, Ujwa, Malikpur Jar Crossing, Ravata, Daurala Border, Makrola Village, Makrola Factory, Kaliabas Mod, Kaliabas Village, Iqbalpur Village, and the final stop will be at AIIMS Badsa.
“It is worth mentioning that Badsa village of Haryana is located adjoining Najafgarh constituency in Delhi. Many people from here are daily commuters to Delhi. Many of them have jobs and other work in Delhi, but due to lack of bus facility in this entire area towards Haryana, the local people are facing problems commuting for day to day work,” he said.
“When this issue was brought to the notice of Delhi Transport Minister, he took immediate action and got the route surveyed. “The new service is expected to start as early as January 2023. It may very well be the New year gift to these people who will get to travel in safer, more convenient and affordable public transport,” he added.
