Foundation Stone Of Bhubaneswar Railway Station Redevelopment & Angul-Balaram Line Inauguration Tomorrow

Bhubaneswar: Foundation stone of the much awaited Bhubaneswar railway redevelopment project will be laid in and Angul-Balaram new rail line inaugurated on Thursday.

Two new trains are also scheduled to be inaugurated in Bhubaneswar and Angul, railway sources said on Wednesday.

Bhubaneswar railway station is a part of the vision of Railway Minister Ashwini Vaishnaw to create modern infrastructural facilities and amenities for rail passengers throughout the country.

This project is being taken up at a total cost of Rs 308 crore and targeted to be completed within 24 months.

Apart from Vaishnaw, Union Education Minister Dharmendra Pradhan and Coal and Mines will join the foundation stone laying programme.

The 14-Km long Angul-Balaram New Railway Line will provide facilities for the transportation of freight, especially coal to the different industries and power houses of the country and will add additional revenue for the nation.

Odisha Chief Minister Naveen Patnaik is slated to inaugurate the new railway line.

This apart, Puri-Jaleswar-Puri Passenger Train and Express train between Sambalpur and Shalimar via Talcher-Dhenkanal & Bhadrak will be introduced.

Both trains will provide facilities to the public of the respective regions for direct journey instead of changing transportation facilities at many intermediate places. Both the New Trains will run as Special trains on their inaugural day on Thursday.
