Saraswati Vihar is an upscale residential area in North West Delhi in Pitampura.

The land was far away from Delhi city as it existed then and initially resembled a jungle with trees and uncultivated fields.

The layout of the entire housing society was well-designed with green parks, open spaces, schools, sweet shop and commercial centre.

The teachers built their houses on the plots of land leased to them, generally by taking loans from the government or banks.

The number of original allottees selling off their land or getting their houses redeveloped by real estate builders in exchange for newly built floors and some cash is increasing.

A green belt spanning over 1.5 km goes through Saraswati Vihar which make it one of the posh colonies of Delhi.

Saraswati Vihar has a library, medical facilities, post office, banks, shops, health clubs and schools.
