To celebrate the success and to mark the ten years of commencement of construction of Delhi metro, a museum tracing its history will soon be set up on one of its station premises, showcasing the origin and memorable moments during the construction of one of the most ambitious Mass Rapid Transit System (MRTS) of modern India.

Delhi Metro Rail Corporation (DMRC) spokesperson Anuj Dayal said, "The metro museum will house photographs, newspaper archives, models of the trains, curios, books and audio-visual films explaining the history of Delhi Metro."

Construction work for the museum has already begun at the Patel Chowk station. The site was chosen because as Dayal stated, "There is a parking facility available at the station and it is also centrally located. Considering its accessibility, we chose this station." The inauguration is said to be in a month's time.

Earlier, there were reports in the media, claiming that DMRC is in consultation with the Archaeological Survey of India for the construction of the heritage museum at the Qutub Minar metro station.

However, Dayal stated, "All planning and construction are being handled by DMRC and ASI has nothing to do with the project." Further informing all that, "We are looking at setting up a bigger museum at some other location. We have already applied to the government for land."
