The station is re-designed to be the largest station of the metro and will function as the interchange station between Line 1, Line 2 and Line 3.[8] The Line-2 complex, built below the Line-1 complex (requiring modification to Line-1 station) was completed and inaugurated on 6 March 2024.[9][10][11][12][13] The Line-2 complex is designed with world class amenities and murals that depict the culture, tradition, sports, monuments, important structures, etc in them.[14][15][16]
