About Thakurpukur

Serves the Thakurpukur area in south-western Kolkata.

Thakurpukur opened to passengers on 2 January 2023 with the Purple Line's first section and is elevated with two side platforms. It serves the residential spread along Diamond Harbour Road and, most consistently, the cancer hospital and research centre that carries the neighbourhood's name and draws patients from across West Bengal — which gives the station a steadier flow through the middle of the day than its commuter neighbours.
