Haryana’s railway infrastructure is poised for a significant transformation, as a record budget allocation of Rs 3,416 crore has been made for the upcoming fiscal year. This investment, which surpasses previous allocations, aims to strengthen the state’s rail network and support regional development. Chief Minister Nayab Singh Saini praised Prime Minister Narendra Modi and Union Railway Minister Ashwini Vaishnav for their commitment to enhancing connectivity and fostering economic growth.
A key highlight of the plan is constructing 1,195 km of new railway tracks, backed by an overall investment of Rs 15,875 crore. Additionally, 34 stations will be modernized as ‘Amrit stations,’ featuring improved infrastructure and passenger amenities. Electrification projects, new connectivity routes, and the introduction of Vande Bharat Express trains are also part of the initiative, enhancing travel efficiency and accessibility.
This railway expansion is expected to optimize resources, facilitate trade, and provide better transportation services for Haryana’s growing population. By investing in modern rail infrastructure, the state moves closer to achieving seamless connectivity and supporting long-term economic growth.
