Okhla is an urban neighbourhood located by the Okhla barrage in South East Delhi, near the border between Delhi and Uttar Pradesh. Okhla has lent its name to the nearby township of New Okhla Industrial Development Authority or Noida. Okhla is an assembly constituency.
==About== Okhla is one of the oldest inhabited areas in Delhi near the bank of Yamuna River. This can be judged from the making of Okhla canal (Agra Canal) by the British in 1874, presently known as Okhla Head.
