Narwana Road is a major collector street located in the residential neighborhood of Patparganj in the East Delhi district of Delhi, India. The road serves as a crucial artery for the locality, connecting the main Patparganj Road to the inner residential blocks, markets, and parks. It is known for several key landmarks, including Narwana Apartments, after which it is named.
About the Narwana Road
The road derives its name from the Narwana Apartments, a prominent residential society built by the Delhi Development Authority (DDA) situated along the road. It is a common practice in Delhi for streets to be named after significant colonies or landmarks located on them.[2]
In 2023, the PWD obtained approval to carry out Phase II of beautification works for an ~800 m stretch from Technology Apartments to Parivar Apartments on Narwana Road. [3] Earlier phases included work from Mother Dairy to Technology Apartments. [4]
However, the project has faced delays. In 2022, residents of about 30 apartment complexes reported that although work was started in 2020, less than 30% was complete and works were stalled due to objections by the Forest Department over tree damage. [5]
Route Description
Narwana Road begins at its northern terminus, intersecting with the Patparganj Road (also locally known as Mandawali-Fazalpur Road). This junction is located very close to the Mandawali - West Vinod Nagar metro station.
From there, the road runs south, intersecting with other local streets like Shanti Marg. It is a two-lane, two-way street lined with a mix of residential buildings, local markets, and schools, and provides access to the popular Madhu Vihar market area. It is the primary access route for the numbered residential lanes (galis) of West Vinod Nagar. The southern end of the road diffuses into smaller lanes connecting towards Press Apartments Road.
