Ber Sarai is a small neighbourhood located between Jawaharlal Nehru University (JNU) and IIT Delhi in the South West district of Delhi, India. The farmlands of Ber Sarai

were acquired by the government at meagre costs, without adequate compensation or muavaza (मुआवज़ा) [citation needed].

Accessibility

The nearest road is an undivided and wide link between the Outer Ring Road and other areas of outer Delhi, such as Vasant Kunj. As this road forms a conduit, it sees heavy vehicular traffic in both directions. Ber Sarai is approximately 25 minutes by car from the Indira Gandhi International Airport.

Overview

The neighborhood comprises two distinct sections: Ber Sarai Village and Ber Sarai Delhi Development Authority (DDA) Flats. The village shares a wall with the hostels of IIT Delhi and is, at present, a dense collection of houses mixed with shops. The Ber Sarai has a market, which is famous for both new and second-hand books. The nearest metro station is R.K. Puram metro station (on Magenta Line).

Electorate

The Ber Sarai neighbourhood is included within the "Outer Delhi" electoral constituency of Delhi. This constituency has been the battleground of two candidates over the years: Ramesh Kumar of the Congress (I), who replaced his brother Sajjan Kumar (a senior leader of congress party and ex Member of Parliament) and Sher Singh Dagar Ex MLA of the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP). Naresh Yadav of the Aam Aadmi Party is the current MLA of this area.[1]
