Millennium Park Bus Depot, Delhi is the largest and biggest bus depot in India as well as the largest bus depot globally.

Explanation:

  • The depot was mainly built by the Department of Public Works of the City and opened on 17 September 2010. and was inaugurated on 17th September 2010. The depot occupies an area of 60 acres and has the capacity to park  maximum of 1000 buses at one time under shed, which is 14 per cent of the aggregate parking capacity of all DTC depots combined
  • Originally, it was only used during the Commonwealth 2010 Games to operate the fleet of six hundred buses to transport athletes, media and officials around the City. The depot also housed a number of police cars so  so as to fully secure the events that was held then.
  • The depot was used as a shed for 1,000 buses from the DTC after the Games were over. The depot also was one of the bus stations chosen for the introduction of the new "cluster bus" program in the area, which acted as a parking lot for private buses. The depot was run by the Delhi Transport Corporation as a regular bus station after the Games.
  • While the advantages of the depot were well known, the depot also had a great deal of controversy and criticism, especially as regards its "temporary" existence and the violation of environmental norms. Several NGOs and RTI activists strongly protested the depot's position by alleging violation of the constitutional arrangements concerning safguarding the environment. However, the petitioners pointed out that the depot site would be ecological disaster as it was an significant recharge area for water and an active floodplain
