What Makes It Awesome?

Right in the middle of the rattle of metro arrivals and submerged in the thump of more than a thousand human feet, Sahitya Akademi Bookstore situated just a level below the metro lines heading to Dilshad Garden /Rithaala, is a gem to be cherished.

Especially in India, stations rarely have a dedicated bookstore and thus having one is no less than a commendable initiative. Being under the aegis of Govt. Of India, this bookstore has books for as cheap as ₹20/- and will only go as high as ₹1500/-

Books on literature, regional stories, folklore, literary pieces etc. donne the shelves of this store. The best thing is you can even get a subscription for the books that you want.

In a nutshell, I believe that in the world where fast food stores crowd the metro stations, these bookstores come as a respite that the world will shrink a little slower.

Look around as soon as you get down the first level of Kashmere Gate Metro Station.

What Could Be Better?

Maybe they can keep more active staffs to assist the people with books.

How Much Did It Cost?

Under ₹500

Best To Go With?
