Gour Kishore Ghosh (also known as Chingrighata)[3] is a station of Line 6 of the Kolkata Metro near the Chingrighata crossing at Sukant Nagar in Bidhannagar.The station is named in honour of famous Bengali writer and journalist, Gour Kishore Ghosh.[4][5]

History

This project was sanctioned in the budget of 2010–11 by Mamata Banerjee with a project deadline of six years.[6] The execution of this project has been entrusted to RVNL at a cost of Rs 3951.98 crore.[7] It will help to reduce travel time between the southern fringes of Kolkata to Netaji Subhas Chandra Bose International Airport. In October 2011, RVNL awarded Gammon India Limited, the tender for the construction of the metro corridor from VIP Bazar Metro Station to Nikko Park (Nalban metro station),[8] including stations, as part of Package-II of Line 6. Amongst those metro stations, one in Dhapa was also sanctioned, i.e., Barun Sengupta.[9][10][6] In January 2012, the construction of the metro station along with the metro line started. The construction of the station was stopped in 2015 due to land dispute at Tagore Park culvert and a pair of footover bridges.[11] The construction of the station started again in May 2017[12][13][14][15] and was fully completed in early 2023.[16][14][17] But the metro couldn't be started due to a viaduct gap over Tagore Park culvert.[18][19]

A week later after inauguration and a day after commercial run started on Kavi Subhash-Hemanta Mukhopadhyay section, in March 2024, RVNL announced the completion of that 76 m viaduct gap after construction of a single-span hanging steel bridge over the disputed Tagore Park culvert. This completed the viaduct upto Beleghata metro station, clearing the way for commercial operations at Barun Sengupta.[20] Trial runs have started in the same month. The station is expected to be operational by late 2024.[21]
