The Pink Line (Hindi: पिंक लाइन) is an under construction line of the Delhi Metro, a rapid transit system in Delhi, India. The line is a part of Delhi Metro Phase III network. It consists of 38 metro stations from Majlis Park to Shiv Vihar, both in North Delhi. On completion, the Pink Line with a length of 58.59 kilometers (36.41 mi) will be the longest line in Delhi Metro, breaking the record set by the operational Blue Line. It will be mostly elevated and will be covering Delhi in an almost 'U' shaped pattern. The Pink Line is also known as the Ring Road Line, as the entire line passes alongside the busy Ring Road in Delhi, that witnesses massive traffic jams everyday.

The Pink line has planned interchanges with all operational lines of the network such as the Yellow, Red, Green, Blue, Orange Line and Violet lines, as well as with the Hazrat Nizamuddin and Anand Vihar Terminal (Indian Railways) and the ISBT's at Anand Vihar and Sarai Kale Khan. The Pink Line will have highest point of Delhi Metro at Dhaula Kuan with a height of 23.6 metres, passing over the Dhaula Kuan grade separator flyovers and the Airport Express Line.[1]

Progress of civil works up to July 2016 is 86.31%. The line is to be completed in the phases, with the final phase proposed to be finished by September 2017[2]
