The Durgabai Deshmukh South Campus Metro Station is a metro station located on the Pink Line of the Delhi Metro. It has been built as a part of Phase III of Delhi Metro.[1] There is also an interchange facility with Dhaula Kuan metro station to catch the Airport Express Line. Both the stations are expected to be connected by a 1300m long walkator.[2] Located on the Ring Road, near the turning of Benito Juarez Marg, the station is expected to improve connectivity to the South Campus of Delhi university and nearby colleges.[3]

The station was originally named South Campus. In December 2014, the Delhi government changed the name to Durgabai Deshmukh South Campus.[4]
