Noida's Botanical Garden Becomes Delhi Metro's Busiest Station, Surpassing Kashmere Gate
Botanical Garden metro station in Noida has become the busiest station in the Delhi Metro network, surpassing Kashmere Gate and Rajiv Chowk with an average daily footfall of around 2.7 lakh passengers in June 2026. This shift reflects Noida's growing residential and employment hubs and improved connectivity, including the Blue and Magenta Line interchange. Officials expect ridership to increase further once the station connects to the upcoming Aqua Line.
