CM Arvind Kejriwal had laid the foundation stone of the underpass on December 24, 2019. Then it was claimed that the underpass work will be completed within one year.

The deadlines have been missed for the underpass several times due to coronavirus lockdown and then ban imposed on construction activities.

The estimated cost of the underpass is about 78 crores.
