C.G.S. colony is a housing colony providing accommodation for employees and staff of any central government body/organisation. C.G.S. is derived from Central Government Employees Society - the "E" is not used usually because saying "CGS" is much easier and faster than saying "CGES", but C.G.E.S. is the official short form. The colony is located approximately mid-way of the King's Circle and Koliwada or Guru Tegh Bahadur Nagar railway stations. C.G.S. colony consists of seven sectors, I through VII and the buildings are graded according to the number of rooms each apartment of the building contains. In C.G.S Colony Sector 7 is larger than the other Sectors. There is also a Kendriya Vidyalaya school in Sector 1 for the employees and staff of any central government body/organisation and there is also a ground for playing which is in Sector-6 Called Cement Ground. The allocation of the apartment type to an individual is based on his/her ranking within the central government body/organization.
