The Delhi Metro Rail Corporation (DMRC) has set up a permanent exhibition at the Rajouri Garden Metro station dedicated to recipients of gallantry awards in the armed forces.
The exhibition, named ‘Veerta aur Vikas’, also documents the growth of the Delhi Metro. The exhibition comprises around 13 panels occupying around 100 feet at the Metro station. One of the panels lists the names of 21 soldiers who have received the Param Vir Chakra so far. The exhibition also contains a panel on the “major events” of India since Independence and a timeline of the Delhi Metro’s genesis and growth spanning 32 years from the time that it was first recommended. It now covers 391 km with 286 metro stations.
