The station is located in Haryana’s Gurugram, a National Capital Region (NCR) known for its bustling IT industry. It is better known as Millennium City.
In 2016, the Haryana government decided to change the name of ‘Gurgaon’ citing the city’s name ‘Gurugram’ with origins dating back to ancient Hindu scriptures. The land is believed to have been owned by legendary rulers - the Pandavas and Kauravas. They presented it to Guru Dronacharaya, their royal warfare guru, as an appreciation for his training.
