After a lot of hardships and developmental work, the Kavi Subhash–Hemanta Mukhopadhyay section of Orange Line was inaugurated on 6 March 2024.

On 28 July 2025, cracks were detected in the last four columns of the Line-1's Up platform. The north–south platforms of the station was closed to passengers as a safety measure and the Blue Line trains were terminated at Shahid Khudiram metro station. However, the empty rakes continued to run up to the station for reversal and maintenance at its depot. On investigation, it was found that the columns supporting the platforms were weakened beyond repair. Metro authorities decided to raze the entire north–south complex of the station (keeping the tracks intact) and rebuild it. E-tenders were floated, and the work was estimated to take up to ten months to complete.
