Location

Shaheed Sthal metro station, also known as New Bus Adda metro station, is the terminal metro station of the Red Line in the Delhi Metro. It is located in Ghaziabad, Uttar Pradesh. The metro station serves closest to NH 58 bus station, which carries passengers from Meerut to New Delhi and is also close to Red Mall Cinepolis. It is on the link road which connects NH58 to NH24. The station was renamed in 2019 in honour of the martyrs of the Indian Sepoy Mutiny of 1857, which saw a fierce battle fought near the Hindon River, with freedom fighters resisting British troops. The name change from New Bus Adda to Shaheed Sthal occurred in 2019 at the request of local residents and the Ghaziabad Development Authority, aiming to commemorate the historical significance of the area in the first war of Indian independence..
