'''Janpath''' is a [[Delhi Metro]] station on the [[Violet Line (Delhi Metro)|Violet Line]] under the metro's phase III expansion. It is part of a plan to introduce a parallel line to the busy [[Yellow Line (Delhi Metro)|Yellow Line]] corridor as well as provide quicker access to the [[Blue Line (Delhi Metro)|Blue Line]] by connecting [[Mandi House metro station|Mandi House]] and [[Central Secretariat metro station|Central Secretariat]]. The station was opened on 26 June 2014.<ref>{{cite news|title=Delhi Metro's Mandi House-Central Secretariat line opens|url=http://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/city/delhi/Delhi-Metros-Mandi-House-Central-Secretariat-line-opens/articleshow/37243174.cms|access-date=26 June 2014|work=Times of India|date=26 June 2014}}</ref>

==Completion==

In April 2013, Delhi Metro rounded off the 1,516-metre tunnel on Mandi House-Janpath stretch of Phase-III expansion project. It took 182 days of excavation work to complete the tunnel. The 5.8 dia tunnel runs under some notable places like the American Centre, Nepal Embassy, Fulbright House, Antriksh Bhawan, Scindia House and Janpath Market to name a few.<ref name=Janpath>{{cite web|title=Third Delhi Metro tunnel of Phase-III project at Janpath station completed |url=http://www.financialexpress.com/news/third-delhi-metro-tunnel-of-phaseiii-project-at-janpath-station-completed/1106603 |work=The Financial Express |access-date=11 June 2013 |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20130619173820/http://www.financialexpress.com/news/third-delhi-metro-tunnel-of-phaseiii-project-at-janpath-station-completed/1106603 |archive-date=19 June 2013 }}</ref>

The new metro station is targeted at easing the congestion at the Rajiv Chowk Metro station, which is bustling with more than 300,000 commuters every day. This phase three project will add an extra 140 km to Delhi's metro network, covering almost 75 percent of Delhi metropolis.<ref name=metro>{{cite web|title=70 percent of Janpath Metro station ready|url=http://en-maktoob.news.yahoo.com/70-percent-janpath-metro-station-ready-151410999.html|publisher=Yahoo!
