Ashok Nagar is a neighborhood in the city of Delhi. It constitutes a part of the Tilak Nagar assembly constituency as well as the West Delhi parliamentary constituency. The area was known as Tihar Village 2 before being renamed as such. It is an authorized neighborhood today, and the government of Delhi plays a role in its development.[1]
Ashok Nagar is a refugee colony comprising migrant populations from Jhungh (Chinyotte), Sargodha, Bahawalpur, West Punjab, Sindh and Northwest Frontier Province. However, people from the Indian states of Uttarakhand, Rajasthan, West Bengal and Punjab, among others, also reside in this area.
The township is divided into four parts: Main Blocks, the MCD Colony, Double Stories, and Uggarsen Market Area. The colony was separated in a well-planned manner into seventy blocks, each with sixteen houses surrounded by a lane on all four sides. As the 71st block lay across Jail Road, it was renamed, Prem Nagar. This area also has five public gardens, namely, Ajanta Park, Ashok Nagar Park, More wala park, 41 block Park and Tikona Park. The neighbourhood lies adjacent to two larger parks; Jheelwala Park And Dhan Pathwar to the south and Tagore Park to the northeast. Jheelwala Park was famous for the boat rides run by the DDA.
